ENVSCI 188S: First Year Seminar in Environmental Science II

This is a two-semester sequence, two credits each semester. Successful completion of the sequence will fulfill the student's First-Year Seminar requirement. Course content will vary with instructor, but will focus on current issues in environmental science. Using this approach, students will become increasingly familiar with and experienced in scientific discourse, the scientific method, and the interplay between the natural and social sciences that comprise the study of the environment. Within this framework, the course will address all the objectives of the UMass Boston First Year Seminar Program.
