Short Description

The Bachelor of Science in Environment and Sustainable Business is a four-year undergraduate programme jointly offered by the School of Energy and Environment (SEE) and the College of Business (CB).  This programme is designed to equip students with strong foundations in environmental science and technologies, and business knowledge to tackle climate change-related challenges and to achieve sustainability goals.  At the same time, the students will stay abreast with the latest trends and technologies, including renewable energy integration and circular economy initiatives, that underpin investment decision-making for sustainable finance.  Distinguished industry experts, hailing from prominent organizations in Hong Kong, will share their expertise through guest lectures, fostering experiential learning and industry connections.  Students will actively participate in real-world sustainable business projects, cultivating practical skills in sustainability assessment, Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) integration, and impact investing.  Graduates of the programme will possess a comprehensive understanding of sustainability in practice, equipped to navigate the challenges and seize the business opportunities created by more climate change related regulations and policies.
