Prospective Students

 

Environmental Studies Program

The Geography and Environment Department at Mount Allison offers a Major, Minor, and Honours in Environmental Studies and B.A. Minor in Geographic Information Systems. When advice is needed, students have access to the Program Advisor, Dr. Brad Walters, who will assist in providing students with details of the program.

A number of curriculum changes are implemented each year. For this reason the University Calendar is the authoritative source for degree and program specification.

Not all courses are offered annually. Therefore students are advised to pay careful attention to the planned patterns of course rotation and to seek advice from the Department as needed.
