A brief description of the sustainability-focused immersive experience(s) offered by the institution:

Earth and Environmental Systems is a department that offers classes in geography, geology, anthropology, and environmental science. This department educates through experiential learning and community engagement. At least 75% of the classes have a hands-on component that brings students into contact with community members. Most of our students also complete senior thesis using original research to address environmental issues. The required coursework in this program includes environmental, social, and economic courses and the capstone course is called Conservation and Sustainability that requires all students to do a personal and group research project in sustainability.
