Global Collaborative

The BA/MSc collaboration focuses on global climate change and will prepare students to help generate new ideas that may offer solutions. Students will earn an undergraduate bachelor’s degree from Vassar and a master’s in science from the University of Edinburgh.

Vassar recently hosted a three-part webinar titled “Innovation in Higher Education: Building Capacity for Inclusive Leadership” that featured conversations with people in the academic and business worlds. All agreed that transforming global society into a more equitable one will require today’s students to engage in a broad, liberal arts education.
