Environmental Studies Program

Environmental studies encompasses a broad range of
issues that arise from the interaction of humans with the natural world. To understand these issues, students must
think across and beyond existing disciplinary boundaries.
The environmental studies major provides a framework for students to study how humans experience, investigate, and interact with their natural environment.

The curriculum includes, an interdisciplinary core that encourages students to explore the social, aesthetic, ethical, scientific, and technical aspects of environmental questions, and a disciplinary-based concentration that allows students to approach these questions with more focused knowledge and methodological tools.
