The Environmental Studies Program at Oberlin College provides an interdisciplinary approach to the study of human interactions with the environment. Faculty in environmental studies are engaged in research and teaching that span climate change, energy systems, systems ecology, natural resources and conflict, Indigenous environmental issues, political ecology, environmental economics, environmental humanities, environmental justice, food and agriculture, urban sustainability, U.S. environmental policy, and global environmental issues and politics. They collaborate with Indigenous, African diaspora, and Asian communities, as well as with local, county, and “Rust Belt” communities in the Great Lakes bioregion.
