Environmental Studies Classes and Degree Requirements

The major in environmental studies has both core course requirements and a credit requirement. The major requires students to take at least 30 credits of approved course work and a minimum of ten courses in environmental studies (EVST) or courses with a strong EVST component in associated fields listed below. A maximum of three courses or nine credits from 1000-level courses can be counted toward the fulfillment of the major, and a maximum of one study abroad course can count towards the degree. In addition, a minimum of three courses above the 3000-level are required for the major. The major requires students to take three core EVST courses (1010, 3310, and 4410), one methods course and six electives, three of which must come from the School of Liberal Arts (SLA). Only one internship (EVST 4560 Enviro Stud Internship (0-4 c.h.)) may be counted towards the major requirements.

Students should note that some courses have prerequisites or are open only to majors (e.g., PSDV 3200), though some restrictions may be waived with instructor approval if class space allows. Careful academic planning, in consultation with your EVST faculty advisor, is strongly recommended. Environmental Studies Major requirements and a list of all EVST courses can be found in the Tulane University Catalog.
