Seventh Issue of Springs: The Rachel Carson Center Review
The RCC is delighted to announce the release of the seventh issue of Springs: The Rachel Carson Center Review.
This edition ponders on emplacement and visibility, takes us through the centuries, and echoes an urgent call to attend to nonhuman sentience.
Join us as we travel to Venice, explore farming in Thailand, and “walk a Sicilian river.”
RCC Goes Abroad
The RCC offers great opportunities to study abroad. We have four Erasmus+ partner universities, a graduate exchange with the University of Kansas, an option to go abroad with our international project Speak4Nature, and much more.

Alongside its graduate programs, the RCC hosts various externally funded projects—all contribute to the dynamic and multidisciplinary life of the center.
