Our world is grappling with critical social, environmental and economic issues, and given their expansive reach, influence and ability to scale, businesses today are uniquely positioned to act as catalysts for change, shaping our planet toward a more sustainable future. In today's dynamic business landscape, aligning sustainability with your strategy isn't a mere choice—it's an indispensable imperative. Companies that embrace sustainability seamlessly within their strategies not only drive positive environmental, economic and social impact, but also fortify their resilience, reputation and competitive edge in an increasingly conscious and interconnected market.​


There is a growing need for purpose-driven business professionals with a transformational mindset, prepared to truly embed social, environmental and economic change into their strategic playbook in a way that transcends surface-level green labels. The Master in Sustainability & Business Transformation will prepare you to be that type of professional, who is able to integrate sustainability—encompassing economic, environmental and social perspectives—as the driving force and cornerstone of your business strategy. ​


You will broaden your perspective by understanding all aspects of ESG (environment, society and governance) in every function of the business and integrating them into business strategies that generate long-term impact for your company and for society. Ultimately, this program will enable you to harness the latent potential and power of businesses, making them function as agents of positive change.​


Because we believe your career path is as unique as you are, we have designed a learning journey that utilizes real-world case studies, practical methodologies and immersive experiences to ensure you are well-prepared to navigate the professional landscape and lead transformative change. Get ready to spearhead the transformation of the modern business landscape—where sustainability isn't an add-on, but rather the pulsating heart of success.​
