Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary program that focuses on the social, institutional, political and legal aspects surrounding environmental issues and concerns.
Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary program that focuses on the social, political, cultural and legal aspects surrounding environmental issues and concerns. Students enrolled in Environmental Studies use a social science approach to understand environmental issues and solutions.
The program is often of interest to those who want to develop skills in communication, program development and policy analysis.
Students in environmental studies explore environmental issues relating to human populations, sustainable resource development, pollution and conservation, environmental health and endangerment and preservation of species. Students work to understand alternative conditions that have the potential to reverse current environmental trends and contribute to ecological sustainability.
Students have access to undergraduate courses offered by the Clayton H. Riddell Faculty of Environment, Earth, and Resources as well as the Faculties of Agricultural and Food Sciences, Arts, Law, Engineering, Architecture and Science in order to complete their education. They are expected to take many courses outside the Riddell faculty enabling them to obtain a truly interdisciplinary education.

Field courses on ecological and environmental topics
