Earth and Environmental Programs
Students in our Earth and Environmental Network programs are united by their passion for the environment. Each of our programs develop student understanding and scholarship for our environment and resource use, from the structure and processes of our natural world in Biology or Earth Sciences majors, to how humans use and impact the world today in Environmental Studies, Economics, or Geography majors, to our historic use of resources in Anthropology.

"The JMC program helped me build the skills I need for a career in the industry. Also, because of the small class sizes, I received the individual attention I needed to understand the content. Most importantly, I was able to build personal relationships with my instructors and peers. My favorite thing about the program is that it allows each student's unique skills and talents to shine."
