Students can choose a number of great majors:
The Applied Sustainability majors combine the fundamentals of ecology and permaculture with social sciences and humanities as they seek solutions to complex global challenges. We emphasize hands-on learning. Students study and practice ecological design at permaculture sites near campus, including Â鶹ӰÊÓ’s own Boxer Gardens, a learning lab for food production and permaculture.
Environmental Biology is designed for students who are interested in science and want to apply their studies to addressing environmental problems. The curriculum is heavy on field-based coursework in the forest, streams, grasslands and wetlands surrounding Â鶹ӰÊÓ. Projects include ecological restoration, species conservation and the development of land-use recommendations for regional land owners.
