The graduate programs emphasize interactions between social and natural sciences necessary for resolving complex environmental and resource management problems.

SRES faculty members, numbering six fulltime Dalhousie University professors, about 12 cross-appointed Dalhousie professors, 22 adjunct professors from other universities and 8 honorary research associates, undertake a very wide range of scholarly projects in their teaching, research, developing, consulting and advising activities. Prominent themes in SRES' current research and development activities include industrial ecology (cleaner production), environmental management systems, biodiversity conservation, protected areas, sustainable forest management, ecological economics, environmental impact assessment, community sustainability, and climate change.
Located at SRES is the Atlantic Regional Office of the Canadian Climate Impacts and Adaptation Research Network (C-CIARN). The focus of C-CIARN is to facilitate research into the potential impacts of climate change on Canada and the development of adaptation strategies to best deal with these impacts. C-CIARN Atlantic is a network of researchers and stakeholders throughout the Atlantic provinces interested in impacts and adaptation issues.
