Did you know that your college-age son or daughter could attend the School of the Environment this summer? Need-based grants are available.

The School of the Environment initially will be open to rising juniors and seniors from any undergraduate institution who have engaged in some study of the environment and who have completed at least one college-level lab course.

Students enrolling in the inaugural session (June 20 to Aug. 1, 2014) will take three integrated courses: interdisciplinary field study, a skills-based practicum and an advanced elective with an international and global emphasis. The three courses will share connecting themes, tools, strategies and faculty, as well as mentors, visiting scholars and practitioners.

An emphasis will be on linking skills associated with leadership and innovative problem solving with a solid grounding in the principles and concepts of environmental studies.

Contact Stephen Trombulak, Director, if you have questions at trombula@middlebury.edu.  Visit the School of the Environment Blog for updates and information.
