Syllabi

Sunset, Slocan, B.C.Here are some existing syllabi that describe potential work in an environmental field. While they are rather more specific than, say, the example assignments, like the course outlines or proposals, they may be useful in sparking ideas that can be adapted to be more appropriate to your own course or discipline.

For further syllabi in the environmental humanities and sciences, please see ASLE's syllabi database.
