Environmental Studies
Solving complex environmental problems requires knowledge and expertise from the sciences, social sciences, arts and humanities. Cornell's emphasis on the liberal arts and our highly individualized educational approach are ideally suited to preparation for advanced study and careers in the environmental field.
And our One Course At A Time schedule enables exceptional opportunities for interdisciplinary and off-campus learning, undergraduate research, and independent projects.
