Undergraduate students at Ohio University have several ways to engage with the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Service.
You might pursue a certificate in Environmental Studies, Sustainability and Resilience or study with us through the Honors Tutorial College (HTC) Environmental Studies major. Or join us to get experiential learning as a hands-on member of one or more of our research teams that work to help improve the lives of Ohioans.
Each pathway connects you with faculty and staff who are leaders in fields including environmental studies, public administration, sustainability, resiliency, social entrepreneurship, economic development, program evaluation and analytics, and prevention work.
The Voinovich School offers competitive scholar positions to outstanding Ohio University students looking for career preparation opportunities and research skills. You’ll gain valuable experiential learning working alongside faculty and staff in service to the region.
This certificate is an opportunity to take a cross-section of environmentally themed courses from a variety of disciplines. You'll complete the certificate with a capstone course or leadership internship tackling a key topic in environmental studies.
Environmental challenges are complex and require creative, multidisciplinary solutions. The Honors Tutorial College Environmental Studies major motivates students to blend scientific and cultural knowledge, to grapple with choices, and to explore the tools needed to create a more sustainable world.
