Program Description
The doctoral program in Environmental Sciences, Studies, and Policy (ESSP) offers a unique opportunity to pursue interdisciplinary research on environmental topics and issues while gaining a thorough grounding in the methods and knowledge-base of a traditional discipline. Each student completes both a focal department (or an interdepartmental focus) component and an interdisciplinary component for their coursework and research training. Each student designs an individualized curriculum responsive to their educational and career goals.
The program prepares students for academic positions in their focal discipline or in interdisciplinary programs, for research occupations, and for leadership roles in creating and implementing envrionmental solutions in the private sector.
Since our program requires close collaboration between Environmental Studies and the focal department, applicants must be approved by both programs (application to both departments is not required). "
Program Prerequisites
Since our program requires close collaboration between environmental studies and the focal department, applicants must be approved by both programs prior to an recommendation of admission to the Graduate School (Only an application to ESSP is required).
