EUCLID (Pôle Universitaire Euclide | Euclid University), an international intergovernmental organization with a university mandate, offers to intergovernmental and national civil servants (as well as select students from the general public) a specialized external degree program called the EUCLID Online Master in Climate Change and Sustainability (DCCS). This field of study or specialization covers the full scope of climate-related issues from a policy and education perspective.
It is the only fully online master program in this field organized by an intergovernmental (treaty-based) organization and officially used by diplomats and civil servants over 4 continents. Alumni, students and faculty include current and former ambassadors, minister-counsellors, etc.
EUCLID's Master in Climate Change Studies and Sustainability represents 40 US credits (120 ECTS) of coursework beyond the Bachelor's. In practice, students may enter the program with a relevant Bachelor's degree, complete 30 to 35 US credits of core doctoral courses, followed by a thesis for 6 credit hours.
The resulting thesis should be a proof-of-competencies for a future PhD application and dissertation.
Among the suggested areas of focus are:
- Climate Change diplomacy
- Climate Change education
- Climate Change and Energy intersection
- Small Islands / Small States issues
- Cosmic Cycle approaches
- International and treaty law
- Sustainable development
- IGOs and non-governmental organizations
- Nation-specific dissertations.
