Hello All, I’m happy to see such interest in Miranda’s query. Let’s take most of this off list for now, if we can, knowing that Miranda will summarize what she hears from us individually and privately, and report back to the list.
Cheers and best wishes, Michael From: Raul Pacheco-Vega [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2014 1:16 AM To: Miranda Schreurs Cc: Maniates, Michael Fields; [email protected]; GEP-Ed List Subject: Re: [gep-ed] Environmental programs at your universities I know Canada has at least two PhDs in environment if not more. I am not sure if there's something global, but I will find out. Mexico does have PhD programmes in environment. _____________________________________________________________________ Dr. Raul Pacheco-Vega Assistant Professor, Public Administration Division CIDE, AC.

Miranda can you confirm if you were interested in a more global approach and reach. If the latter, then I can call on colleagues in this part of the world for more information. If the former (ie the US only), then I won't bother.

No need to recreate the wheel.

And here’s a recent, somewhat curmudgeonly (?) assessment of EStudies by yours truly that draws on much the same literature: Chapter: http://blogs.worldwatch.org/sustainabilitypossible/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/SOW2013-24-Maniates-.pdf Video: http://www.worldwatch.org/video-michael-maniates-teaching-turbulence Cheers, Michael Michael Maniates Professor of Social Sciences Head of Studies, Environmental Studies Head of Studies, Individual and Society Yale-NUS College, Singapore http://michaelmaniates.com Most people are eagerly groping for some medium, some way in which they can bridge the gap between their morals and their practices. --Saul Alinsky From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Wil Burns Sent: Monday, May 26, 2014 8:37 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>; 'GEP-Ed List' Subject: RE: [gep-ed] Environmental programs at your universities Dear Miranda, The NCSE commissioned Shirley Vincent et al. to conduct a comprehensive survey of, inter alia, interdisciplinary environmental and sustainability programs in the United States.

Can you please let me know if: 1.) you offer a Bachelor's degree program or environment, and if so what does it look like (inter-disciplinary, cross-social and natural sciences, etc.) 2.) what kind of MA programs you offer in environment 3.) are there special programs for PhD students in environment I imagine this information will be of help to many, so I'll do my best to gather it so we can post it.
