Additional information to be announced:
¤EESC UN3010, Field Geology, with Steve Goldstein and Sidney Goldstein—now 3 pts., preference to Environmental Majors, requires upper level prerequisites (2100 or 2200), instructor’s permission  and email interest to apply to ccook@barnard.edu and steve@ldeo.columbia.edu.  We are awaiting information on field component to this course.

**SDEV courses have limits in size and priority is given to Columbia Sustainability Majors.  All students enroll via a waitlist. SDEV UN2300, Challenges to Sust Development, L. Dale, and stay aware of sign-ups for recitation sections.

***EAEE E4009, GIS-Research Enviro. Infrastructure Management, Y. Gorokhovich has been open to Barnard students, but has not yet been listed.

N.B. Some courses, particularly upper-level, graduate-level, and Engineering (EAEE) courses have pre-requisites. Consult the catalogue, your adviser, or the dept to ensure you’ve completed pre-requisites before finalizing your program. Courses in Environmental Health (EHSC) held at the School of Public Health campus, with the exception of P6300, have prerequisite of 2 years of Chemistry, 1 year of Biology and Calculus. To enroll in any International Affairs (SIPA) class, you prior approval from Dean Youngblood Giles at Beyond Barnard. Check the Directory of Classes for more information from Anthropology, Economics, History, Political Science, Sustainability, and Urban Studies or any updates we may forward to you.

Notes:


EESC BC3016, Environmental Measurements with B. Mailloux has been moved to Spring 2021.

Barnard Courses have been updated and we are in the process of updating Columbia courses and may include EEEB courses. Course days and times may change.  Additional courses will be added to this list, so please check the Directory of Classes and the Environmental Science Department website.

*Has LAB with same course number—see schedule for time.

SDEV UN3366, Energy Law will include a one-hour recitation and will be scheduled prior to the start of classes.  Register via waitlist, priority to Sustainable Development students, so write to instructor if you are an Environment and Sustainability major.

Steps for Registering for Classes

Fall 2020

As in the schedule above, please note that the curriculum includes courses over three semesters, as well as several immersive classes that will be offered over a 7-week period. Immersive courses will cover a semester's worth of material in a shorter number of weeks, meeting twice as many hours per week, allowing students to take fewer courses over the same semester with a more sustained focus on course content.

Full Fall semester courses will be held from Tuesday, September 8 through Wednesday, December 23, 2020.
Fall A semester courses will be held from Tuesday, September 8 through Friday, October 23, 2020.
Fall B semester courses will be held from Monday, October 26 through Wednesday, December 23, 2020.
