Forge Connections and Inspire Change in Environmental Studies - Humanities

Explore the essence of our relationship with the Earth through the Humanities track in Environmental Studies. This unique program is an invitation to explore the myriad ways in which culture, history, ethics, and the arts intersect with the natural world. As we face unparalleled environmental challenges, understanding these intersections becomes crucial. Through courses in environmental philosophy, literature, and cultural studies, students gain insights into how human values and beliefs shape our environmental actions and policies. This track encourages a deep exploration of human narratives and experiences, aiming to cultivate a generation of environmental thinkers who can articulate and address the ethical dimensions of ecological issues.

In our Environmental Studies program, you're not just studying the environment; you're examining the stories we tell about it and our place within it. You will learn to analyze and interpret the cultural artifacts that reflect our relationship with nature, from ancient myths to contemporary media. By engaging with diverse perspectives and creative expressions, students in the Humanities track develop the critical thinking and communication skills necessary to inspire change. Whether you aim to become an environmental educator, advocate, or writer, this program equips you with the knowledge and passion to make a difference, emphasizing the power of empathy and understanding in forging a sustainable future.

${testimonial.imageDescription}

As I stood in the back of the auditorium and listened to Sister Mary’s address to the incoming class my freshman year, she said something that immediately spoke to me. 'There’s a reason that you all are here. You were destined to be here. You looked at us, we looked at you, and we connected. You are physically meant to be here.' I still remember the “immediate chills” I got that day... that moment was when I knew I made the right decision coming to Marywood.
