Introduction

The Faculty of Arts and Sciences offers students a number of opportunities to study environment on the St. George campus.
Students are encouraged to investigate the following environmental program options as well as those of the Division of the
Environment.

Division of the Environment (Arts or Science programs)
Offers and co-ordinates academic, disciplined-based programs. See below.

Environment & Resource Management (Arts program):
(See program details under Geography)
These Specialist and Major programs can be linked with either the Division's Arts or Science programs for an Honours Degree.
This program focuses on resource and environmental planning, environmental assessment, water resources, waste
management and Canada's forests from the perspective of Geography.

Environmental Studies (Arts program):
(See program details under Innis College, or at www.utoronto.ca/envstudy)
There are restrictions on combining these Specialist, Major and Minor programs with Division programs. The Innis programs
utilize an applied interdisciplinary approach, provide exposure to the people and organizations active in environmental work in
Canada, and focus on skills development and the understanding, development and implementation of progressive
environmental policy and practice.

Forest Conservation (Arts or Science programs):
(See program details under Forestry, or at www.forestry.utoronto.ca.)
These Specialist , Major and Minor programs can be linked with the Division's science or arts programs for an Honours degree.
Core subjects include world's forests, forest products in sustainable forestry, forest conservation practices, forest management
and resource allocation, and forests and society. Other topics include biodiversity, sustainability, international policy,
certification, intensive forest management, community management, forest health and forest fragmentation.

Physical & Environmental Geography (Science program):
(See program details under Geography)
These Specialist and Major programs can be linked with the Division's science or arts programs for an Honours Degree. Core
subjects include geomorphology, climatology, soil science and hydrology. Other topics include biogeography, remote sensing,
climate assessment, biogeochemistry and environmental contaminants modeling.

Division of the Environment
The Faculty of Arts and Science established the Division of the Environment to help students focus the diverse strengths of the
Faculty's environmental scientists and scholars into an academic program. In addition, the Division's programs offer students
access to environmental scientists and scholars in other units of the University. The Division offers HBA and HBSc minor,
major and specialist programs: Environment and Science (Science) and Environment and Society (Arts) which are normally
taken in conjunction with another program(s) in a traditional academic field (e.g. Physics, Sociology, etc.). We consider this an
ideal combination of disciplinary depth and interdisciplinary breadth.

In addition, the Division offers six Science specialist programs: Environment & Health; Environmental Chemistry;
Environmental Geosciences; Earth Systems: Physics and Environment; Past Environments; and Environment & Toxicology.
These programs combine the Division's interdisciplinary core with a deliberately focused set of discipline specific courses.
Students interested in Division of the Environment programs should refer to the program listings on the following pages.
All Science programs in the Division include a very strong first-year science component with core interdisciplinary science
courses in subsequent years. Students intending to pursue Environment and Science or any of the Science specialist
programs are advised to choose first year courses from BIO150Y1 and (CHM138H1, CHM139H1)/CHM151Y1, MAT
135Y1/137Y1/157Y1/JMB170Y1, PHY138Y1/PHY140Y1/GGR100Y1/JGF150Y1/JGG150Y1. Students should compare specific
program requirements and the prerequisites of ENV235Y1, ENV236Y1 when selecting specific courses.
Arts programs in the Division build on a base of social science and humanities courses. Environment and Society does not
require specific First Year courses. Students intending to follow arts programs in the environment might find it helpful to take
ENV200Y1 in first year and to include some First Year course choices from the 100-level offerings in Anthropology, Biology,
Economics, Geography, History, Philosophy, Political Science or Sociology.
For further information, see http://www.utoronto.ca/divenv/ or contact Professor Ingrid L. Stefanovic, Director, Division of the
Environment at 33 Willcocks St., 416-978-3475 or division.environment@utoronto.ca

The Environmental Minor Programs:
Environmental minor programs are offered by a number of departments. Five are science and four are arts minors. These
programs are intended for students interested in acquiring a hierarchical body of environmental knowledge in a specific
discipline.

These minors are open to any student irrespective of program. As in any minor, these programs can be combined with other
programs of study (i.e., minors and majors) to meet the requirements for a degree. (See Page 21 of the Calendar for program
requirement details).

Students should be aware that numerous programs not explicitly labeled as environmental have relevance for the study of the
environment. For suggestions and advice consult the Division of the Environment at http://www.utoronto.ca/divenv/ or phone
416-978-3475.
