Environmental Studies

Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines the interactions between humans and the environment. It integrates knowledge from various disciplines, including ecology, biology, geology, geography, social sciences, and policy studies, to understand environmental issues and challenges. The aim is to analyze and address the impact of human activities on natural systems, promote sustainability, and develop strategies for environmental conservation and management. Environmental Studies encourages critical thinking about the complex relationships between social structures, technological developments, and ecological systems, aiming to foster a deeper understanding of how to balance human needs with environmental protection. Students and professionals in this field engage in research, education, and advocacy to address issues like climate change, biodiversity loss, resource depletion, and environmental justice.
