Foundations of Environmental Science II
This course is the second in a three-course sequence required of all ENVS majors. It will provide the basic scientific grounding needed to intelligently discuss environmental policy and to prepare students for more advanced study in the environmental sciences. It focuses on physical science, especially thermodynamics, energy and climate change.
Prerequisites: ENVS 101 or ENVS 137; Restricted to BA majors in the School of Environmental Sustainability.
Outcomes: Student will gain understanding of the physics dictating global climate dynamics and climate change, as well as the energetic of different energy sources and technological aspects of alternative energy sources.
