This programme offers a comprehensive look at the circular economy, combining perspectives and practical tools to help you understand how circularity works in various contexts. Closely aligned with sustainability science, the programme's curriculum also introduces key concepts for advancing societal change toward strong sustainability, such as planetary boundaries, just transitions, sufficiency, and ecological economics. The programme is well-suited for people with a full-time job. Most of the content is available online, and in-person instruction is offered during intensive periods. However, participation in the programme requires occasional in-person attendance at the Lahti campus.
