Graduate School Information

Since environmental studies is such a truly interdisciplinary field of study, there are almost limitless options for students who want to continue studying environmental issues in graduate school. If you know the areas that interest you the most, ask for advice from faculty on programs that may be a good fit for you. Many faculty have a good working knowledge of graduate programs, especially in their individual fields. If you would like to continue approaching environmental studies from a broad standpoint with no focus on any field in particular, then perhaps an interdisciplinary environmental graduate program is best for you. Here are some such programs:
