Curriculum

The Environmental Studies curriculum at Cornell emphasizes a holistic learning approach with contributions from a wide range of disciplines and perspectives. Please refer to our Why Study ENV at Cornell page for a description of some of our interdisciplinary courses, as well as a sampling of our many off-campus opportunities.

Concentrations

All Environmental Studies majors share a set of core courses, but choose one of three areas of concentration: Environmental Sciences, Environmental Policy and Values, or Marine Science. Information on core courses and links to each concentration can be found on the Major and Minor Requirements page.

Combined Programs

Cornell offers Combined Degree Programs leading to the master's degree in several environmental fields in cooperation with Duke University and the University of Michigan.
