Overview

About the Program

The Sustainable Water Management program of Tufts University is the newest initiative and combines almost fifteen years of interdisciplinary research and experience to promote further advancement in the water sector. Supported by the excellence of the WSSS certificate and the Water Diplomacy program, the SWM degree builds off of the tenants and values of the two programs.

With faculty contributions and assistance across Tufts, the SWM degree is able to build off existing water conversations and research across departments in order to provide an interdisciplinary and intensive degree program that could not be conducted in any one school or department at Tufts University.

The SWM degree continues to expand the water conversations at Tufts with a new and exciting opportunity for students which enables them to pursue a variety of futures within the water discipline.
