PART OF THE SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY AND SUSTAINABILITY FLIGHT PATH

Building on the University of Oregon's long tradition of environmental research and activism, our program sets the standard in interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration with more than 100 participating faculty from thirty campus programs and departments. The interdisciplinary minor in Environmental Studies allows students to cross the boundaries of traditional disciplines (including the sciences, social sciences, and humanities as well as management, policy, design, and law) and challenges them to look at the relationship between humans and their environment from a new perspective.
