Join us!

Any WSU faculty or staff member engaged in environmental science, broadly defined, may choose to be recognized as an affiliated faculty member of the Environmental Science Program. To be so recognized, the faculty member must submit a written request to the program director. This request for affiliation must include a short, publishable statement that outlines their connection to environmental science by means of their teaching, scholarship, and/or service. Affiliated Faculty are committed to mentoring Environmental Science majors, for example through research or service activities.

In addition, we're looking to build partnerships with local community members and organizations for internship opportunities, curriculum advising, job placement, scholarship funding, etc. If you are interested or know people or organizations we should reach out to, please contact the program director.
