The majors that constitute the Environmental Analysis (EA) at CMC are designed to prepare students for careers in many environmental problem-solving fields, including law, policy, medicine, chemistry, conservation, global climate change, urban planning, and resource management. Other concentrations are available through Pitzer and Pomona. CMC sponsors a concentration in EA Science. It also provides a solid background for careers in environmental education and community environmental action.Ĭlaremont McKenna participates in a five-College collaboration that allows students to take advantage of a broad range of courses, facilities, and opportunities in the study of environmental issues.

One of the greatest challenges facing humankind in the new century is the need to develop a sustainable civilization in a world with natural systems and limits under increasing strain from economic expansion and population growth.
The major participates in the interdisciplinary classics program taught by faculty from Claremont McKenna, Pitzer, Pomona and Scripps Colleges, which offers access to a wide range of classics-related topics, including archaeology and art history, classical culture, government and political science, history, literature in translation, mythology, philosophy and religious studies. It is also complementary to graduate study in various disciplines of the humanities and social sciences (e.g., art history, government, history, law, literature, philosophy, religious studies, psychology) and provides auxiliary preparation for students planning to do graduate work in those areas. It is designed for students who want a background in classical civilization while preparing for careers in business and commerce, education, government and law, medicine and the sciences, and other research-related fields such as consulting. The classical studies major provides a broad, liberal arts education and the cultivation of critical thinking skills in multiple disciplines.
