Sustainable design is an area of research and practice focused on environmentally conscious and socially responsible architectural solutions. Researchers explore energy-efficient systems, eco-conscious materials, and community engagement. The goal is to reduce environmental impact and promote equitable, healthy, and inclusive spaces. Ultimately, the research aims to address global challenges such as climate change and resource depletion through sustainable architectural practices.

The School currently offers a Masters in Professional Science program in Urban Sustainability and Resilience as well as a Graduate Certificate in Sustainable and Resilient Design.
