Sustainability Science and Practice B.S.

Overview

UM's new Sustainability Science and Practice B.S. offered through the Environmental Science program seeks to incorporate sustainability theory, environmental science and integrative, analytical thinking, as well as sustainability planning, monitoring, and reporting. In addition to classroom work, students will benefit from hands-on opportunities in sustainability practice through our supervised internships in community agriculture (PEAS farm), native plants and ethnobotany, sustainable living at the UM FLAT, and other sustainability-related internships. We provide a capstone course that is problem-driven and gives you experience integrating scientific and local knowledge to develop practical solutions.
