This BSc in Environmental Science and Policy emphasizes the understanding of interrelationships between social phenomena and the natural (i.e., biological-physical-chemical) environment. It is intended to:

• increase student awareness of these interconnections in their everyday lives.
• introduce students to a variety of social science perspectives, along with hard environmental science perspectives, that help students make sense of these connections.
• identify the contributions of each of these perspectives to our understanding of environmental problems.
• discuss how natural resource management and environmental policy reflect these perspectives.
• produce graduates who promote sustainability in all facets of human enterprise.
