Rider’s sustainability studies minor helps students explore the complex task of protecting the earth while generating economic welfare and ensuring social justice.
Rider is where your future begins. First-year students are defined as recent high school graduates who are attending college for the first time. There are so many opportunities ahead. Take the first step towards your tomorrow at Rider.
No matter where you began your journey, Rider has the resources you need to continue moving forward. At Rider, transfer students are defined as students who are under the age of 25 and have credits from another college or university.
Rider offers flexible pathways for adult learners aged 25 or over, including veterans and active duty military personnel, that allow you to earn your bachelor's degree or take courses for personal enrichment. Non-matriculated or visiting students should apply using the Continuing Education application.
Our interdisciplinary program integrates classroom and experiential learning with sustainability-related courses in environmental and social sciences, ethics and business, and a broad range of internship and independent study opportunities. The introductory course for this minor also fulfills a general education requirement for most colleges across the university.
