ENVI3888: Environmental Studies Project

Overview

Complex environmental challenges demand cross-disciplinary thinking at a range of scales, from the local to the global. Geography and environmental studies both straddle thought and practice in social and natural sciences and are therefore inherently interdisciplinary. This unit will provide students with opportunities to integrate the concepts, skills, and practical tools acquired during their geography and/or environmental studies majors to tackle contemporary, real-world problems in teams.
