Our upcoming programs provide multiple pathways for learners to develop expertise in green chemistry and sustainability.
Green Chemistry Macro-Credential Program
Overview
The Green Chemistry Macro-Credential Program is designed to provide learners from both chemistry and non-chemistry backgrounds with progressive training in sustainable chemistry, from foundational concepts to advanced applications. The program equips chemistry majors with specialized knowledge to integrate green chemistry principles into scientific research and professional practice, while enabling non-chemistry majors to understand and apply sustainability concepts within their own disciplines and careers. Participants develop the knowledge, skills, and interdisciplinary perspective needed to drive green innovation in academia, industry, government, and community settings.
