Bachelor of Arts with Major in Environmental Studies
As the pressure of use on all parts of the
environment increases, so our need to understand the environment
and how we can interact with it in sustainable ways becomes more
and more important. Environmental Studies encourages a
wide-ranging, interdisciplinary and integrative approach to the
study of the biophysical environment. Students will be made
familiar with a wide range of interactions between people and
environments as well as various environmental processes and
biophysical systems. Environmental studies therefore involves
such topics as the forms and processes of the biosphere, the
economic, political, philosophical and ethical dimensions of our
relationships with the biosphere, and the planning strategies and
management techniques that can be implemented to regulate our
impact on environments.
