A century of unparalleled human progress has connected people around the globe in ways our forebears couldn’t have dreamed, but the environmental effects of our decisions are seen and felt locally and globally, in the immediate present and for years—even centuries—to come.
The Environmental Studies, AS program at CSM equips graduates for a career working toward ecological literacy and sustainability. Students develop a solid foundation of scientific knowledge and familiarity with current environmental concerns, including climate change, biodiversity, water pollution, deforestation, and air pollution.
The course of study for students enrolled in the program prepares graduates to expand and deepen their expertise in a broad range of disciplines, such as natural sciences, environmental design, pre-law, and environmental policy. Primarily directed toward students seeking a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Studies or a related field, the program is intended to fulfill the first two years of undergraduate study and ensure a successful transfer to a four-year college or university.
