Environmental Studies · 5 credits

This course introduces key social-scientific and policy tools that have been developed to understand and address human activities within social-ecological systems. Course materials introduce the application of those insights to post-war case studies in the United States to examine the historical and ideological origins of contemporary environmental dilemmas. Students are also introduced to the various majors available in the Environmental Studies department. This course is the second of two foundational courses in environmental studies and should be taken shortly after completing ENVS 303.
