About the Climate Change and Sustainability Syllabus Hub
The Phelan United States Centre’s new Syllabus Hub on Climate Change and Sustainability was born out of an aspiration to build a comprehensive base of high-quality knowledge surrounding climate change and sustainability topics. This is a resource for students, researchers, and academics both at LSE and abroad.
It collates syllabi – including reading lists, lesson plans, and lecture slides – from reputable institutions across the United States, and the educators within who generously individually donated their syllabi. Without them, the project could not be possible.
Who is the Climate Change and Sustainability Syllabus Hub for?
Anyone educating others about climate change, sustainability and the US. Creating a new syllabus can be a challenge - whether you are an educator teaching courses at the undergraduate or graduate level, you can use the Climate Change and Sustainability Syllabus Hub to see best practice on related topics from across the world, and take inspiration from the syllabi provided when designing your own. We encourage users to look outside their own disciplines on the syllabus hub; many of the syllabuses featured are also interdisciplinary in nature.
How to use the Syllabus Hub
Syllabi are divided into their broad disciplines, and within its respective category is made visible through collapsing the drop-down box for each syllabus’ name. There, you can see the name of the educator who donated it, a few keywords let you know what is contained therein, and a link to download or visit the syllabus. For example, if you are searching for economics syllabi, you would first go to ‘Social Sciences’ and scroll until you see ‘Economics’in italics before the courses’ names.
