Social and Environmental Justice Certificate

This interdisciplinary certificate is open to enrolled WSU Vancouver undergraduate students in all majors.

 

To qualify for the certificate, students must complete a total of 15 credits including a 3-credit internship course in coordination with their advisor and the Collective for Social and Environmental Justice (CSEJ) Director, and 12 credits in two or more disciplines from the list of qualifying courses below.

 

The 3-credit internship is to be arranged in the student’s major or minor program area using the appropriate internship course designation. In cases where a discipline-specific internship course is not available, UNIV 398 Internship may be used. Students will coordinate with their major or minor advisor and the CSEJ Director for placement. Internship credit for the certificate also requires four additional cohort meeting sessions offered each term, organized by the CSEJ Director and Certificate Committee.

 

The remaining 12 credits can include any of the following: ANTH 205, 307, 334, CES 373, CRM J 205, 403, ENGLISH 373, H D 334, 410, HISTORY 230, 250, 298, 308, 331, 332, 409, 426, 436, POL S 314, 430, SOC 102, 340, 415, SOE 312, TCH LRN 330, WGSS 300, and 481.

 

To complete the certificate, the student (in consultation with their advisor) must describe a coherent social or environmental justice theme for their course of study.
