Many environmental questions, and almost all of the environmental crises with which we are confronted, are inherently interdisciplinary. While students interested in environmental issues may well go on to pursue focused studies as scientists, economists, historians, or other specialists, a responsible background in environmentalism requires basic fluency with a wide diversity of approaches. With that in mind, students in the program examine the natural environment from the perspectives of the humanities, social sciences, and environmental sciences, and apply these perspectives in an innovative capstone seminar. Environmental Studies gives students a broad foundation in the environment, preparing them to approach pressing environmental questions and complex environmental issues from multiple angles.<br><br>Environmental Studies majors and minors will examine issues such as global climate change, biodiversity conservation, sustainable development, the rights and value of non-human animals and nature, population and resource consumption, the role of the environment in local, national, and international politics, and environmental justice and environmental racism.
