Global Resource Systems

 

Looking for an education that will prepare you to make a difference in your community, country and the world?

 

The Global Resource Systems (GRS) program is a student-centred Bachelor of Science degree that allows students to gain an understanding of natural and agricultural resources from an international and interdisciplinary perspective. In GRS, students design their own degrees around a specific “region” of the world and a “resource” of their choosing. From sustainable agriculture to indigenous food systems to environmental design, there is something for everyone in the GRS program!
