Environmental Sociology is the study of the relationship between modern societies and the environment at a variety of scales, from households to global relations. It includes topics such as the public understanding of environmental issues, the environment and inequality, environmental social movements and social change, migration and the environment, and the analysis of environmental policy reform and adaptation. Environmental Sociology is different from environmental science, which is based in the natural sciences, and environmental studies, which includes courses from a wide range of disciplines, including engineering and the humanities. The major in Environmental Sociology includes a solid introduction to sociology and sociological methods as well as foundation requirements in environmental science. The program prepares students for careers in government, law, management, research and teaching, and the nonprofit sector.
