Global Environment Program (GEP)

With the advent of economy globalization, environmental cooperation has become an increasingly important topic in international affairs. Meanwhile, China, one of the major emerging powers in the world, is confronting brand new challenges and opportunities in global environmental issues. In fact, how to seek the balance between economic growth and the environment has become a vital issue for China in the years to come. Unfortunately, China is in great need of professional talents in the field of global environmental cooperation. That is where GEP steps in, a program aiming to foster future global environmental leaders.
GEP was initiated in School of Environment in 2011 and was promoted to a university level program in 2013 after two years’ trial.
