Overview

Key Features

Begun in 1992 as a concentration (minor), the Environmental Studies program at Swarthmore College expanded to a Tri-College minor in 2012, then added a major in 2016 and an honors major in 2018.We are an inherently interdisciplinary community that draws on expertise in the humanities, natural sciences and engineering, and the social sciences to tackle environmental issues of great complexity and sociopolitical importance. Our mission is to enable students to be responsible custodians of a rapidly changing and interconnected world. We prepare students with the tools and action-based strategies to embrace challenges, build coalitions, and develop personal agency around environmental issues. Central to this mission is an emphasis on equity, collaboration and reciprocity in all environmental work.
