<p>The Environment and Sustainability PhD program was launched in 2018. The program equips students with diverse perspectives to develop profound new ideas, knowledge and answers to the most important concerns facing people and the planet. The program provides a deep understanding of how fundamental principles of environmental science and sustainability can be applied to research and address key environmental challenges that require skills in multiple disciplines—preparing students for a range of careers in academia, as well as public and private sectors. To promote interdisciplinarity as the core of the program’s identity, each student’s program of study and dissertation research are guided by two advisors from distinct areas of research and scholarship.</p>

<p>Official, specific degree requirements are detailed in <a href="https://grad.ucla.edu/academics/graduate-study/program-requirements-for-ucla-graduate-degrees/">program requirements for UCLA graduate degrees</a>, available at the Division of Graduate Education website.
