Dear Colleagues, I'm launching a research project that explores the treatment of theories of social change within undergraduate ES programs in the United States. My intent is to unpack publicly available curricular information from ~ 50 programs that can be reasonably understood to be leaders, exemplars and/or innovators in the field, and follow that up with selected interviews. I'm not looking for the "best" programs per se (what would even count as "the best?"), but rather programs that we are proud of or look up to as educators in the field.
I have my own idiosyncratic cut on what this group of ~ 50 might look like, but I don't want to rely on my intuitions alone. Would anyone on the listserv be aware of existing attempts to compile a list of "strong," "exemplar," and/or "innovative" undergraduate EnvStudies/EnvScience/Sustainability programs in the United States? Perhaps folks could reply to me off-list. I will compile what I receive and report back with a summary.
