** PLEASE FEEL FREE TO FORWARD DIRECTLY TO STUDENTS ** Colleagues,
Those of us in Colorado State University's (CSU) Department of Ecosystem Science and Sustainability (ESS) would value your referrals to students whom you believe to be good candidates for our Master of Greenhouse Gas Management and Accounting (MGMA<https://youtu.be/O0gmkE4ZeUU>) degree program. We have two graduate fellowships and a teaching assistantship available to support incoming students for FA16. The interdisciplinary MGMA degree provides students from a wide variety of academic backgrounds-such as environmental studies, agriculture, forestry, business, engineering, and natural resources-the opportunity to develop the skills needed for emerging sustainability professions focused on greenhouse gas management and accounting. Students explore a range of topics including sustainability, greenhouse gas policies, climate change science, and foundations of greenhouse gas management. They engage in real-world data collection and estimation of greenhouse gas footprints. The MGMA degree showcases CSU's world-class leadership in greenhouse gas and climate change science. The program is led by Dr. Stephen Ogle and Dr. Rich Conant, who have more than two decades of combined experience compiling greenhouse gas emission data for the U.S. government and other governmental and nongovernmental entities. Drs. Ogle and Conant have served as lead authors on reports prepared by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), advise organizations of all kinds on greenhouse gas mitigation, and conduct leading-edge research evaluating drivers of greenhouse gas emissions and mitigation options. For full consideration, applications to the MGMA degree program are due by March 1, 2016. Applicants interested in graduate fellowships or the teaching assistantship should contact the MGMA Program Coordinator<mailto:[email protected]>, Nikki Foxley, as soon as possible for more information. You may also refer students directly to me at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> or 970-491-2139. Thank you and best wishes for the spring semester.
