Environmental Studies

As part of the School of Integrative Studies, the Environmental Studies Program offers a minor that complements many of the majors on campus. Students in the program combine coursework from departments across the curriculum with involvement in the local and global community to gain a broad interdisciplinary perspective on environmental issues and the experience necessary to work toward a sustainable future. The minor prepares students for meaningful, collaborative work in areas such as environmental education, research, consulting, policy, writing or activism. An individualized major in Environmental Studies is also available. Students who wish to pursue a minor or individualized major in Environmental Studies should contact the program director. The minor has three components: interdisciplinary coursework, service activities and an integrative capstone experience.
