Friends and Colleagues, Colorado State University is pleased to announce the launch of a new Master’s Degree in Greenhouse Gas Management and Accounting (MGMA). As I’m sure you know, the U.S. and China just committed to accelerating efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To meet these shared goals, we will need technically-adept professionals capable of quantifying and reducing our emissions. MGMA is an interdisciplinary, professional/non-thesis master’s degree that combines environmental knowledge and the technical skills necessary to accurately quantify and reduce greenhouse gas emissions with an emphasis on agricultural and forestry systems. The program is designed for students from a wide variety of academic and professional backgrounds, such as environmental studies, forestry, business, engineering and agriculture. The degree can be completed in three semesters and also includes a required internship to ensure high-quality, on-the-job training for graduates.
We will be admitting our first cohort of students for Fall 2015 and would appreciate your referring promising students to us for admission. If you know of specific students whom we should contact directly, please send their names and contact information to me, and I'll be glad to follow up directly with them.
