Evidenced-based Reasoning for a Changing Environment is a two-fold course designed to introduce students to the
fundamentals of environmental science, research domestic and global environmental concerns,
gain an understanding of foundational leadership knowledge and skills, and identify the
characteristics of their own personal leadership style, which may develop overtime. Students will
have an opportunity to gain a broad understanding of critical leadership capabilities across
different environmental contexts and develop insights into cross-cultural challenges and
solutions in order to become an environmental leader in today’s society.
