Why Environmental Studies at Coe?
By pairing broad interdisciplinary study of the environment with in-depth studies in another major, students are well-prepared for careers in a variety of areas.
Coe’s program combines courses from science (with a particular emphasis on biology and chemistry); policy (economics, law and politics); and the humanities (ethics, rhetoric and history).
In addition to a diverse selection of on-campus courses, students will also benefit from the many off-campus learning opportunities Coe offers, including the Wilderness Field Station, May term classes and internships/research programs. Graduates completing the major will be well prepared for graduate studies in related fields including master’s degree work in environmental policy or public policy, or securing a job in environmental policy.
