GENL 163 HECUA: Environmental Sustainability

Environmental Sustainability: Ecology, Policy, and Social Transformation. Four linked courses reveal the dynamic interplay between ecological and social change. This program builds hands-on knowledge of key processes of ecosystem degradation and recovery, the social and economic underpinnings of conflict over environmental change, and public policy and community-based strategies that strive towards sustainability. An integrated approach to environmental issues addresses the linkages between ecological, economic, and social systems. Professional internships provide access to the vibrant environmental movement in the Twin Cities.
