Advisement!

Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary program of study. Therefore, students are not only required to meet with their primary advisor each semester, they are expected to develop advisory relationships with faculty members from other disciplines as well. The purpose is to foster the development of research and critical thinking, and a program of study that meaningfully bridges traditional disciplines. Faculty advisors work very closely with students to develop independent studies, internships and experiential learning opportunities. The expectation is that students will complement their coursework with these applied learning experiences so as to make for a more meaningful college experience – and to enhance their resumes!
