Adelphi University, Environmental Studies
Garden City, NY US
About: No matter how sophisticated our technology becomes, society will always require fertile soil, clean air, pure water, a stable climate, and an ozone umbrella to shield us from harmful radiation. We are only now beginning to understand the fragile ecological checks and balances that have sustained life on this planet since its origin. But much remains to be learned; for example, we can predict with certainty the orbital characteristics of a weather satellite, yet ironically, we are often unable to predict with certainty tomorrow's weather. The Environmental Studies Program at Adelphi is committed to involving its students fully in the multidisciplinary nature of environmental problems and the search for solutions. The program provides firm, integrated foundations in both the social-political-cultural and the scientific-technical areas. This preparation will make students environmentally aware members of society in many professions, in graduate study of Environmental Studies and Sciences, or both. Request Information
