Emphasis is placed on the environmental impact assessment of infrastructure projects and the use of modern monitoring technologies
The course integrates concepts of sustainability, risk assessment, and regulatory compliance to develop environmentally responsible solutions
Case studies and project-based learning help students understand real-world applications in both urban and rural infrastructure settings.
Nature Based solutions
Nature: Standalone minor program
Credit: 18 Credits
Capstone: 12 Credits
Course Description: Course Description: The Minor in Nature-Based Solutions is designed for students from all backgrounds who want to understand environmental challenges cities face and make a societal impact
In a world of rising heat, flash floods, toxic air, shrinking green spaces, and mental burnout, this program brings nature back into the heart of urban conversation
Students will explore how nature—trees, water, soil, plants, and biodiversity—isn’t just something to conserve, but a practical, affordable, and powerful tool to rethink how we live, work, move, and eat in cities
At its core is the “Soil to Spoon” approach: reconnecting with where our food comes from, how urban soils breathe life into our ecosystems, and how community gardens, rooftop farms, composting, and rain-fed agriculture can nourish both people and the planet
You'll learn how regenerative practices in cities can not only heal the environment, but also promote public health, reduce costs, and create inclusive spaces that belong to everyone
Whether it's cooling a concrete campus with green roofs, reducing flood risks with sponge parks, redesigning a dusty road into a green corridor, or growing food in urban nooks—students will gain the tools to act.
