Environment
Environmental studies is a necessary and fast-growing field. As an Augustana Environmental Studies
major, you will take certain classes for studies and electives. Your faculty mentors will help you focus your energies towards future goals, experiences, tools and skills needed to use professionally and/or in graduate school in the field.
Hands-on experience is essential in environmental studies and problem-solving, as is sharing what you find with others. You will complete at least one internship and/or field experience with an agency or company. For your Capstone you will design, develop and present a solution to a real-world sustainability challenge facing an urban or rural community in the region. Please review Environmental Studies course catalog.
Augustana also offers related coordinated-degree programs in environmental management and forestry and landscape architecture.
