Environmental Resource Management faculty are partnering with the College of Engineering and Agricultural and Biological Engineering along with SUNY Brockport and Virginia Tech to offer this course to Antarctica during winter break 2023-24.
The ERM 499 embedded course investigates the impacts of climate change and scientific discoveries in Antarctica. It provides a broad overview of the continent’s human and natural history. Special attention is given to Antarctica’s physical and ecological systems, human activity in the region, sustainable tourism, and the use of fragile polar resources. Students attend weekly lectures, write two short essays, complete a midterm project and final essay exam, and submit an annotated bibliography of their field course readings. https://agsci.psu.edu/global/study-abroad/courses/embedded/antarctica
