Sustainable Urban Environments Minor

The program in Sustainable Urban Environments (SUE) prepares students to join scholars, policymakers, and other professionals as they work to create sustainable urban areas. Based in the NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering, the SUE program combines education in the liberal arts and in technology, to ensure that students are conversant with both the technical and social aspects of sustainability that face cities. Students in the minor can take courses in sustainable cities, urban policy, and city design, as well as courses in civil engineering and infrastructure planning. The SUE program prepares students for graduate study and future careers in urban planning, urban and environmental non-profits, transportation, housing, and related fields. This minor is open to all NYU majors. Students may earn an SUE minor in by completing 15 credits, consisting of two courses from the SUE core and three courses from any of those offered in the SUE concentration.
