Environmental challenges are among the most pressing issues facing citizens in the 21st century. Few local, national, or international conflicts lack an environmental dimension. Understanding these environmental problems requires an interdisciplinary approach that integrates the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and the arts. We cannot adequately understand an issue like water pollution through a single disciplinary perspective; it involves anthropology, biology, business, chemistry, economics, geosciences, government, history, literature, and sociology. The mission of Environmental Studies and Sciences is to help students develop literacy at the intersection of these disciplines.

A Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary degree program that focuses on understanding and addressing environmental issues from various perspectives, including scientific, social, political, and economic aspects. This program typically spans four years and is offered by many colleges and universities worldwide.

Our environmental studies program empowers students to develop the knowledge, skills, and understanding required to address the complex environmental concerns that face our world today. An interdisciplinary approach integrates the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the humanities.

This degree is directed toward the implementation of complex environmental solutions, balancing policy-oriented approaches to environmental problems with knowledge on the science behind them. You'll learn how to develop and evaluate cost-effective policy alternatives, generate public and political support for resource utilization practices that lower humanity's impact on the planet, enact legislation, and devise mechanisms that invite or ensure compliance or enhance understanding of the issue.

You’re concerned about the planet. So are we. Temperatures are rising. Natural disasters are becoming more extreme. And vulnerable communities are disproportionately impacted. In our Environmental Studies major, you’ll craft sustainable solutions with insights from natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities.

The Bachelor of Arts in Urban Sustainability offers students a broadly defined degree option at the bachelor’s degree level that indicates their interest in a career in the sustainable development, urban development, and environmental management field.

Our environment faces major challenges every day from pollution to climate change to species extinction. These environmental challenges will require significant adjustments in the way we work, live, govern in order for our planet to survive and thrive. People will need to become more educated about how to adapt to and mitigate environmental issues, making a career in environmental science more important and vital than ever.

Geography majors study how the world works, from Earth’s physical features to climate changes to cultural relationships between people and the land. They address some of the world's most urgent challenges, from globalization to world hunger, agricultural development to economic inequality, immigration to global health.
