The University of Wisconsin–Green Bay’s Master of Science in Environmental Science and Policy (ES&P) provides interdisciplinary graduate training grounded in environmental science. While the curriculum incorporates aspects of public policy, the program is not an environmental policy degree. Instead, it emphasizes scientific approaches to understanding and managing environmental systems, with policy and administration viewed as valuable extensions of scientific knowledge. The program reflects UW–Green Bay’s long-standing commitment to environmental inquiry—dating back to its founding as “Eco‑U”—and aligns with the university’s mission to foster responsible citizenship, sustainability, and problem-solving. It also embraces the Wisconsin Idea, which holds that knowledge created at the university should benefit communities across the state and beyond.
