As part of CECS’ ongoing efforts to promote a multi-disciplinary approach to environmental issues, Director Stephen Depoe currently serves as a faculty member for the Environmental Studies Program (ESP), an undergraduate major in the Department of Biology at UC. The program offers a Bachelor of Science degree (B.S.) in Environmental Studies and trains students to become environmental professionals with a broad, interdisciplinary understanding of environmental issues. The ESP includes faculty members from disciplines including: political science, communication, business, economics, biology, chemistry, and engineering.
       Environmental Studies faculty team teach a three-quarter sequence that introduces freshmen to the diversity of the environmental field. During Spring 1999, Stephen Depoe teamed up with economics professor Haynes Goddard for the first course in the sequence. Dr. Depoe’s portion of the course provides an overview of the environmental movement and incorporates guest speakers who will discuss a wide range of Cincinnati area environmental issues and controversies.
