The Concentration: Heart of the EVST Major

The concentration—a focused study of one environmental field—is central to the EVST major. It equips students with discipline-specific and issue-based knowledge, preparing them for leadership in their chosen environmental fields. Students work with the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) to select courses that fulfill these requirements and support their academic objectives.

Concentration Options:

  • Pre-defined concentrations available
  • Option to create a custom concentration
  • Total of six courses tailored to academic goals

Requirements:

  1. At least one course emphasizing research methods relevant to the concentration or essay
  2. An advanced seminar (200 level or above) focusing on research and writing
  3. For BS Program students: Three SC-designated courses
