This course is the integrative experience for environmental geographers, environmental scientists and geospatial information scientists. This interdisciplinary seminar uses Environmental Security in a case study approach to study environmental issues potentially affecting U.S. National Security. Cadets will explore environmental security topics such as water and natural resource shortages, energy use and dependency, global climate change, and other regional environmental issues, using an interdisciplinary approach from geographic, social, political, economic, and scientific-technological perspectives. The course includes several guest speakers and culminates with a interdisciplinary team project.
