Bachelor of Arts and Master of Science in Environmental Science and Policy

Program Overview

The Environmental Science and Policy (ES&P) Master of Science Program at Clark University prepares students for exciting careers at the intersection of environment, technology, policy, society, economy and development. ES&P continues a long tradition: the current program has evolved from one of the first environmental programs in the country to explore this multi-faceted intersection. The Accelerated BA/MS Program provides more intensive graduate study of ES&P in combination with a liberal arts BA degree.

Environmental challenges are inherently complex and dynamic. ES&P teaches students to: apply knowledge and methods from both the natural and social sciences; to integrate quantitative, spatial, qualitative and narrative data; and to understand interconnections among environment, technology, policy, society, economy and development. The ES&P student becomes equipped with knowledge, skills and perspectives to work collaboratively with a wide array of stakeholders - communities, governmental agencies, NGOs, businesses, researchers, and donors - in ways that are sensitive to cultural, institutional, socio-political, and economic contexts. Our approach to scholarship and practice is constructively critical, engaged with diverse people and places, and strongly integrative.

ES&P students participate in research/practice collaborations that tackle a wide range of pressing issues, including health risks associated with toxic chemicals, climate change impacts and adaptation, natural resource governance, and capacity building for sustainable development in both domestic and international settings. ES&P students are educated to recognize, characterize, frame, understand and collaboratively respond to the challenging environmental issues of the 21st Century. As member of a closely-knit family of graduate programs - including International Development, Community Development & Planning, Geographic Information Science for Environment & Development, and Community & Global Health - ES&P is an academically rigorous, professionally-oriented program. Faculty academic advisors work closely with ES&P students to co-create a course of study that best prepares each student to be successful in meeting her/his professional and academic goals.
