What courses fulfill the advanced seminar requirement for the BA and BS track?

For both the BA and BS degree program, courses that are listed as EVST seminars and assigned a writing (WR) credit typically fulfill this requirement, such as EVST 212, EVST 215, EVST 224, EVST 324, EVST 350, and EVST 422.  Other departments or major programs also offer advanced seminars with substantial environmental content and significant research and writing emphasis.  Subject to a test of relevance to your concentration or senior essay, such courses may fulfill the advanced seminar requirement. 

A major objective of this research and writing emphasis is to develop the skills that help with writing the EVST senior essay. Therefore, a student might fulfill this requirement with seminars in other social sciences or humanities departments in Yale College or at YSE, taken within the context of their concentration, if the seminar has significant research and writing content. For example: Environmental Justice in Modern South Asia (EVST 324) introduces and requires students to gain familiarity with ethnographic and other anthropological research methods and contains a very substantial writing requirement.
