Undergraduate Minor in Energy and Resources

The Energy and Resources Group (ERG) shares a vision of a future in which the twin goals of human well-being and a healthy environment are mutually and sustainably satisfied. ERG's mission is to develop and transmit the critical knowledge needed to make such a future possible. The Minor in Energy and Resources offers undergraduates the opportunity to develop basic knowledge and skills to help them address complex and interdependent issues associated with human use of energy and resources. The minor is designed primarily to complement majors in the natural sciences and engineering although students in other majors with the appropriate prerequisites might also choose it.
