Environmental Studies Minor
Gustavus Adolphus College
Description
In Environmental Studies, we believe that we can create a more just and sustainable world by drawing together knowledge and insights from many disciplines and areas of study. We strive to learn from history, the natural sciences, the social sciences, theology, the arts and the world’s great thinkers to find solutions to the enormous environmental challenges of our time. An Environmental Studies student will take courses from a broad range of professors across the College. In addition, our students often engage in activities like sustainability internships, science research assistantships and advocacy experiences. Furthermore, Gustavus offers an astounding array of sustainability-related study abroad programs (in India, Sweden and Malaysia) and encourages students to seek out their own study abroad experiences if they prefer.
