What is The Center for Environmental and Sustainability Education at Dickinson College?
The Center for Environmental and Sustainability Education at Dickinson College was established in 2008 with a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and matching funds from the college, to guide a new curricular initiative to make study of the environment a defining characteristic of a Dickinson education. The initiative, which was developed by administrators and faculty from the three divisions of the college, is designed to build on a history of excellence at the college for environmental, interdisciplinary and global education.

The center works with all members of the Dickinson community to integrate study of the environment and sustainability across the college curriculum and link classroom learning with co-curricular programs, greening of campus operations, and civic engagement, both globally and locally. The center will emphasize interdisciplinary learning, active pedagogies, and global sensibility and responsibility.
