Education

As a field environmental studies seeks to understand the interrelationships of natural phenomena and social structures, systems, and institutions that govern society.

To do so, it must engage in the scholarship of particular disciplines, as well as in the scholarship of integration.

Environmental studies students take courses grounded in critical social theory, such as Political Ecology and Environmental Justice, just as they also engage with economic theories of the environment, and physical and biological sciences.

Environmental studies courses encourage students to think critically about pressing environmental problems, while also advocating for political and social change.
