Environmental Justice is KWU’s newest minor, set to debut in Fall 2024! This minor includes a carefully curated set of current courses in environmental sciences, emergency management, environmental social sciences and social work that will equip you with values, knowledge and skills to contribute to organizations that are creating a more resilient, just and healthy world.<\/p>\n

Current students are eligible, and in fact, may have taken many of the courses necessary! Current Coyotes are strongly encouraged to check with their advisor for more information. This course includes a directed study opportunity that can take place near Salina or in Puerto Rico (additional fees apply for the Puerto Rico opportunity).<\/p>\n
