The Department of Environmental Studies aims to provide students with the breadth of understanding and skills necessary for resolving environmental questions and creating a sustainable future on scales ranging from local to global. It does so through integrated, problem-oriented study and a broad range of courses across disciplines and schools. The department offers opportunities to develop interests in a number of areas, including environmental studies; environmental values, policy, and law; urban environmental problems; climate change; energy systems; environmental justice; and our complex relations with both domesticated and wild nature. CAS students who would like to declare a minor in Environmental Studies can do so by visiting the department's website and filling out the form listed under the "Declaring a Major or Minor" section. Non-CAS students must declare the minor through the "Minor Application" form found on the "Academics" tab in Albert. The "host school" for the minor is CAS, and the "home school" is the school in which you are matriculated as a full-time student. The minor declaration request will then be processed by your home school.
