Thinking, Imagining, and Building Future Environments
This interdisciplinary lecture series presents a range of topics related to human-environment relationships and consists of lectures by faculty from various disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. By presenting diverse research related to environmental issues, the lectures will shed light onto the complexity of human-environment relationships. Why and how do different disciplines explore and think about this nexus and specific materials, organisms, phenomena, and representations of the environment? The lecture series seeks to enhance students’ environmental literacy and open up multiple perspectives on environments of the past, present, and future.
