The Program of Study

Environmental Science and Policy is a teaching and research department offering courses, workshops, and directed group study classes that focus on the complex problems of human-environment relations. The department offers Bachelor of Science degrees in Environmental Biology and Management and in Environmental Policy Analysis and Planning. Courses in Environmental Science and Policy also supplement major programs in a wide variety of established disciplines, although highly motivated undergraduates who find existing majors unsuited to their educational objectives are encouraged to contact the chairperson and faculty of the department regarding individual majors in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (see Individual Major).

Current Information. Through its continuing contacts with many other departments and teaching divisions on the campus, the department develops a variety of special courses and workshops each year that cannot be listed here. Check with the Department office and with the expanded course description handbook of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences for up-to-date information about courses.

Graduate Study. The Graduate Group in Ecology which is housed in Environmental Science & Policy offers a M.S. and Ph.D. degree program. Further information about graduate programs in ecology should be obtained from the chairperson of the Graduate Group in Ecology.
