The IBES Curriculum Committee examines ways to improve and expand the curriculum, modifies concentration requirements and options as needed, assesses student requests for course substitutions, and manages other curricular issues as they arise. The committee’s primary goal is to ensure that the ENVS curriculum inclusively and equitably provides students with a robust interdisciplinary education in environmental studies and environmental sciences. 

The Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) is the Chair of the IBES Curriculum Committee. The DUS appoints other members from the IBES Core Faculty, maintaining representation from STEM fields and humanities and social sciences. Current members are Professor Mindi Schneider (DUS), Professor Leslie Acton, and Professor Dov Sax. Academic Program Manager Jeanne Loewenstein supports the committee.
