Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Environmental Studies] From Beloit College

The environmental studies major provides an interdisciplinary approach to the study of interactions between humans and the environment. It is organized into two tracks: ?Environmental Communication and Arts? is oriented to the arts and humanities; ?Environmental Justice and Citizenship? has a social-science focus.

Both tracks include introductory courses in the arts and humanities, the social sciences and the natural sciences. Core environmental courses, selected for their appropriateness to the student?s interests and proclivities in humanistic or social-scientific environmental study, introduce the interdisciplinary study of environmental issues. Concentration courses allow students to further deepen their knowledge and acquire skills necessary for the practice of ?Environmental Communication and Arts,? or ?Environmental Justice and Citizenship.? Environmental Studies 380: Senior Colloquium in Environmental Studies provides an opportunity for students from both tracks to reflect together upon the diverse perspectives on environmental issues they have studied.
