Environmental Communication

Catalog description

An overview of the growing field of Environmental Communication. Over the past decades, an important body of scholarship has emerged in Environmental Communication that includes a number of edited books, dozens of peer-reviewed publications in a wide range of prestigious journals, a series of edited conference proceedings, and an international, peer-reviewed journal, Environmental Communication: A Journal of Nature and Culture. The course gives students an opportunity to participate in engaged research with a local community on an environmental or sustainability problem and link what they have learned through the course materials with action.
