Green Building and Community Design (GD) Minor
New as of Spring 2008, The Green Building and Community Design minor consists of 18 credits, based on six 3-credit courses: one pre-requisite course in graphical communication; one course in each of four core areas: green buildings, renewable energy, green communities, and green landscapes; and a capstone course to integrate across these areas. In place of a single 3-credit course in green buildings or green communities, multiple 1- or 2- credit summer courses at Yestermorrow can be taken to satisfy the requirement.
