Minor in Environmental Science & Policy

Clarkson's Environmental Science & Policy BS degree program is a multidisciplinary program that combines a rigorous education in the sciences with a broad policy perspective. Because of its multidisciplinary nature, an ES&P minor would not effectively prepare students in either science or policy. For this reason, the ES&P program offers two minors: environmental science or environmental policy. Both minors require 24 credits of course work. ES&P minors are not available to students majoring in Environmental Science & Policy.
