University of San Diego

The University of San Diego’s Master of Science in Engineering for Sustainability and Health (MESH) Online degree is designed to help you take a critical approach, dialogue, and action that includes variables like the effect they will have on the environment, health, and livelihoods of local communities as well as global implications.

• Solutions are not achieved in a vacuum; the built environment (e.g., transport, energy systems, water, and sanitation) affects the health of populations.

How do we protect indigenous land and local flora and fauna?

What is the impact of mining on local communities?

• The world’s problems do not stop at disciplinary boundaries. Disease, poverty, inequity and social injustice, humanitarian crises, and climate change are just a few of the interlinked global crises that challenge us to take a more holistic view of the health of our planet and our future. 

With MESH, we intend to shatter those disciplinary boundaries and provide today’s problem solvers with a purposeful and critical practice that transcends disciplines and incorporates complex system approaches to sustainability and health.
