ENVS 21 - Intro to Environmental Science Lab

Institution:

Santa Clara University

Subject:

Environmental Studies

Description:

This course offers a broad introduction to the major environmental threats facing the world, as well as the key questions or policy debates surrounding our response to these threats. Problems such as habitat destruction, over-harvesting, invasive species, emerging diseases, and global warming cannot be addressed without considering the diversity of cultures and socioeconomic conditions in the global community. Lectures will deliberately contrast the means and obstacles to tackling environmental issues in developed vs. developing countries. In-class and independent research assignments will help students to develop the scientific methods and critical thinking skills needed to analyze and present information pertaining to environmental issues.
