This committee will act as stewards of the Environmental Science and Policy or ENSP minor and courses.
Duties include management of the minor; reviewing and updating required and recommended courses;
participating directly (preferred) and indirectly in ENSP course offerings by teaching or
co-teaching said courses; and promoting the minor to students.
The Environmental Science and Policy minor cuts across numerous disciplines. The structure of the minor encourages
students to gain an introduction to basic environmental science and policy and to develop further depth in aspects
of science and engineering, natural resource management, and environmental policy and social impacts. Committee
members should be committed to the interdisciplinary nature and mission of the minor, its adaptation to changes
in University courses and curricula,
its improvement as understanding and applications of environmental science and policy develop, and its
promotion to students from all disciplines and backgrounds.
The chair is elected by and from the regular faculty members of the committee.
