Botanist and UChicago professor Henry Cowles founded the science of ecology with his landmark studies of the Lake Michigan dunes. Today, UChicago's Environmental and Urban Studies program addresses the complex entanglements of urbanism, environments, and humans. Courses incorporate models and methods from the humanities and social and natural sciences. The program brings together faculty and courses from Anthropology, Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Economics, English, Geographical Studies, Geophysical Sciences, Physics, Political Science, and Public Policy Studies. The curriculum is organized around required elements that include a thesis and an internship or field studies component. Students have worked at an environmental law firm in New Mexico with a focus on indigenous communities, measured and addressed lead levels in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago, and advocated on water shortage issues in Mumbai, India. Stipends are available from the Environmental and Urban Studies program for otherwise unpaid summer field experience.
