Article Excerpt
WE ARE PLEASED to present Alternatives Journal's fourth annual directory of Canadian graduate programs in environmental studies. Reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of environmental studies, many of the programs listed are combined degrees or are jointly offered through more than one participating department.
Due to space constraints, the directory is limited to those programs dealing with environmental studies from a social rather than scientific perspective. The resources listed below will provide information on a wider range of programs within the field of environmental studies, including programs in the natural and applied sciences.
This graduate directory is an annual event, so your suggestions for future directories are welcome. Help us keep this working for you. Contact: , (519) 888-4545, or write to Alternatives Grad Directory, Faculty of Environmental Studies, U of Waterloo, Waterloo, ON N2L 3G1.
