The Environmental Studies program at Â鶹´«Ã½AVPeter\u2019s is aimed at providing students with the educational background and leadership skills necessary to effectively address the issues involved in the scientific, social, economic, political, cultural and technological context of environmental sustainability. Learn to distinguish between scientific and emotional arguments. Integrate theory and practice through field and internship experiences. And learn how to apply ideas and methods from the natural and social sciences, business and humanities to the study of environmental issues. Based on a solid science foundation, the environmental studies program offers you a choice of concentrations: environmental science; politics, policy and society; business sustainability.<\/span><\/p>\n
