<p class="MsoNormal">I’m writing to let you know about a new PhD program in <i>Human Behavior and Sustainability Sciences</i> at Northeastern University:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;background:white"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Roboto;color:black;background:white;mso-ligatures:none">Understanding the complex interrelations among
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-ligatures:none">geophysical systems, socio-ecological systems, and global environmental change processes is critically important for designing toward a more sustainable future.
Understanding human behavior is also critically important for both illuminating the drivers of anthropogenic climate change, and in designing and executing feasible and effective solutions to ensure sustainability. Because an understanding of human cognitive
processes, and the social and cultural contexts in which humans operate, is a necessary but often ignored component of successfully developing and deploying sustainability solutions, we have launched a PhD program that
<b><i>combines training in cognitive, behavioral, and social sciences with training in environmental, ecological, and sustainability sciences to produce boundary-breaking scholars who can accelerate sustainability solutions that are robustly informed by trans-disciplinary
science.</i></b></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-ligatures:none"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;background:white"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-ligatures:none">The program is aimed at students with undergraduate and/or masters backgrounds in Psychology, Linguistics,
Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, Ecology, Biology, Health Sciences, Environmental Sciences, Environmental Studies, and a wide variety of other backgrounds who are interested in obtaining skills in conducting interdisciplinary research in the psychology of
sustainability, and who could go on to careers in academia, NGOs, government, and industry.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-ligatures:none"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-ligatures:none"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please spread the word among potentially interested students. I would be more than happy to answer any questions they or you might have.
