Use our tools below to search and filter for sustainability and climate learning opportunities at UBC. Sustainability-related courses help students learn about causes, issues, and solutions related to solving society’s toughest challenges.

Sustainability-related courses are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). There are 17 SDGs, adopted as a global call to action to end poverty while improving health and education, reducing inequality, promoting economic growth, and addressing climate change and its impacts.

The course list was developed using a multi-step process including keyword-matching based on the SDGs, manual review by Sustainability Hub staff, and feedback from course instructors. 

Some courses may have a different title and/or description this session, may not be offered this session, or be accessible to all students. Please use the links to UBC’s Academic Calendar to find the most up-to-date information and/or book an appointment with your academic advisor.
