Environmental Studies in the Liberal Arts Interdisciplinary Minor

The Environmental Studies in the Liberal Arts Interdisciplinary Minor is designed for students with a particular interest in environmental topics, focusing on a core of social sciences and humanities courses. Courses address domestic and international issues of concern with both current and historical perspectives, and provide students with a well-rounded program of study. The program is open to all students and designed to complement students’ primary majors. This program provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to broaden their education through the wide range of environmental topics available at CSU as they prepare themselves for environmental careers or graduate study.

Program details are available from the Department of Political Science in the College of Liberal Arts. For more information on declaring this interdisciplinary minor, please visit Clark Building, Room C346 or contact Lauren Tighe at lauren.tighe@colostate.edu.
