Environmental Studies, Minor

The Environmental Studies minor consists of a minimum of 21 credits. It should include 4 credits at the introductory level (ENVL 1100 Introduction to Environmental Studies), and 5 credits at the 2000 ENVL level (Ecological Principles with lab, Physical Geography with lab, or a combination of Statistical Analysis of Ecological Systems + Environmental Seminar). No more than 10 credits should be earned at the 1000 or 2000 level. Next, students should complete a minimum of 12 credits at the 3000/4000 level (you may need to contact the professor of that course for a permit to register). No courses outside of ENVL, other than SUST 2100 or a course cross-listed with ENVL will be accepted for the minor. The courses will be selected in consultation with an ENVL faculty preceptor and should be approved in advance. Interested students should see the Program Chair for further information and the minor approval form. To earn a minor in Environmental Studies, each student must pass all minor courses with a minimum grade of C.
