For your convenience, WUCCP has compiled a list of climate-related degrees offered across the four schools which offer undergraduate studies. Remember, you don’t need to major or minor in environmental studies in order to be interested in the topic. For lists of classes which relate climate to other disciplines, check out our Climate Curricular Guides.
