CENTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, ECOLOGICAL DESIGN AND SUSTAINABILITY

By fostering collaborations that bridge the natural and social sciences, arts and humanities, the Center for the Environment, ecological design and sustainability will advance environmental literacy in the Smith community; address environmental problems through interdisciplinary research and educational outreach; facilitate collaboration and synergies among environmental interests on campus; and identify Smith as a model for the study of environmental policies and stewardship.

Broad-based coursework and seminars, expert lectures, and extended collaborative research projects will allow students to develop increasing sophistication in understanding the natural world and the relationship of humans to their varied environments. Such understanding is essential to future study and work in education, law, business, architecture, engineering, government, and advocacy organizations.
