Overview

The time when sustainability was only for climate and environmental activists is long gone. Virtually every organization is conscious about the impact on people, society, environment and climate. Companies are assessed on sustainability, not only by the government and interest groups (NGOs), but certainly also by the consumer. Therefore, innovations in the field of sustainability contribute to the success of companies.

Various parties are involved when implementing new sustainable technologies, for example in energy supply: the government, corporations, societal groups, knowledge institutions and the consumer. The bachelor's program of Sustainable Innovation gives you an insight in sustainability from each of these different angles. For instance, take the development of hydrogen power plants: it entails more than just technology. Also costs, risks, regulations and societal acceptance play an important role. Sustainable Innovation is offered at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).

Career

After attaining your bachelor's degree, most students pursue a master's degree. After that, you can start your own business or become a policymaker or consultant in the field of sustainability, environmental policy or (strategic) innovation.
