Hi everyone. I dont post here often but I enjoy the threads quite a bit.
I wonder if I can solicit some advice.
I already have a degree in architecture and have been working in an office for a few years now. I want to pursue a graduate degree in design, and especially sustainability, but coming from a business perspective.
I am not looking to spend much more time than I already have, or have to, in a design studio... I've done that for 4 years already and that is not the type of education I am seeking now.
Ideally (and this is a total pipe dream) I would have the design and business acumen to one day start or be heavily involved in some type of multidisciplinary design firm.
Any suggestions on specifically what programs/degrees to explore?
From what I have researched so far, there appears to be MBA's out there that say they "focus" on sustainability but Im not how valid that claim is.
upenn has a new masters of environmental building design that i believe is a one year program... i think that USC has a similar program... there is a lot of these out there now...

Some programs in Berkeley's GSD seem interesting.
Much thanks.
