EES PhD Program
In Fall 2012, the name of the School of the Environment PhD program transitioned from "Environmental Sciences and Resources" to "Earth, Environment, & Society."
The EES PhD program is an interdisciplinary program between Geology, Geography, and Environmental Sciences & Management. Students typically have on area of concentration but take classes from these three departments as well as other departments as appropriate.
This program is a cooperative effort of all of the units within the school in collaboration with affiliated faculty from other units in the university.
