Be the change the world needs

We Educate Leaders in Sustainability Science

The world is changing fast and needs informed environmental leadership more than ever. Unity College helps passionate people become grounded and skilled changemakers in the workplace and in the world.

Our flexible online degrees from America’s Environmental College can help you become the changemaker the world needs while honoring your commitments wherever you are.

For over fifty years, Unity College has been preparing the next generation of environmental professionals and leaders to successfully face real-world challenges. With environmentally focused degrees, our liberal arts curriculum is built upon a unique framework of sustainability science—the first of its kind in the nation.

Unity College is committed to the sustainability of our environment and understands the pressing need to address global climate change. That’s why in 2012, we became the first college in the United States to divest from fossil fuels, leading what has become a national movement in higher education.

Our distinctive approach to learning provides our students with an exceptional, high-quality education, enabling them to drive real change with leading-edge knowledge and expertise.

Our residential campus in Maine provides extraordinary opportunities for hands-on learning and research. From 225 wooded acres of farmland overlooking Unity Pond in the tranquil village of Unity, Maine, we prepare each of our students to make a mark on the world. Learn more about Unity College.

In 2016, Unity College launched its Distance Education Unit, which offers undergraduate and graduate degrees, certificates, and continuing education courses.

Unity College is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE).
