Environment and Society听
About the Program
The Undergraduate Minor in Environment and Society introduces students to the intersecting fields of Environmental and Climate Science, Environmental Humanities (inclusive of Literature and the Visual Arts), Political Science, Sociology, History, and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. Careers in Environmental Journalism, Environmental Consulting, Climate Change Mitigation, and Postsecondary Education in Environmental Humanities and Environmental Studies require interdisciplinary study across the Humanities, Geosciences, and Social Sciences. The expanding academic discipline of Environmental Humanities, which recognizes that our environmental dilemmas are fundamentally problems of ethics and political power, demands fluency in this expanding field of study.
