Program Requirements

The quest for sustainable paths to economic development requires scholars and practitioners to transcend the boundaries of traditional disciplines. This domain offers students sufficient depth and breadth of study to acquire a strong grasp of current theories, concepts, and approaches to environment and development. It prepares them for graduate study in interdisciplinary programs (e.g., development studies or environmental studies) as well as in integrative social sciences (e.g., anthropology, geography, etc.).
