What is ESRM100/ENVIR110? 

First, ESRM100/ENVIR110 are exactly the same course listed in two different departments. The requirements are exactly the same.  ESRM100/ENVIR110 "Environmental Science" is designed primarily as an elective to meet the Natural World (NW) and the Individuals and Society (I&S) requirements. It is a 5 credit class. 

ESRM100/ENVIR110 provides a comprehensive overview of environmental science. By using an "earth systems" approach, students recognize society and the environment as an interrelated system. Environmental issues are examined throughout the course and realistic solutions are investigated. Use of the world-wide-web will direct students to Internet-based activities and exercises designed to expand knowledge and teach key concepts. Lessons and notes can be reviewed on the web.

We think you will enjoy this course, as well as learn a lot about Environmental Science. We certainly enjoy teaching it to the wide variety of students at the University of Washington.
