Would you like to somehow create a custom major around sustainability and environment?

By combining the Environmental Studies Major and Thematic Major, you can do just that. Visit our College Catalog to see how you can design your own Sustainability major.

The Environmental Studies Department

The program focuses on how humans interact with their environment, and how science is applied to shape policy decisions at local, regional, and global levels. It explores sustainability, food systems, diversity, and inclusion, among other topics, and the ways in which these intersect with environmental issues. Through this study, students are prepared to become active environmental advocates and stewards.
