Socio-environmental Research at UMD

The Program for Society and the Environment creates a home at the University of Maryland for research on the study of the society-environment relationship.  PSE is grounded in Maryland’s and BSOS’s strategic plan priorities to “be a force in fostering greater understanding of human relations and the natural environment.” PSE serves as a hub for social scientists and students who study all aspects of the society-environment relationship.

Activities

The Program for Society and the Environment coordinates research and
education by:

  • hosting a bi-monthly workshop for social science faculty and graduate students working on environmental issues;
  • housing work and meeting space for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and visiting scholars in a central location in the Art/Sociology building;
  • creating a departmental base for interdisciplinary co-operation with environmental research across the college and campus; and
  • supporting graduate student research on the society-environment relationship through its seed
    grant program.
