Bachelor of Arts in Cannabis Studies - Environmental Stewardship

Cannabis Studies students explore the historical, cultural, social, political, and legal contexts of cannabis through social and environmental justice frameworks. Students in our interdisciplinary major will find an engaged faculty from 18 academic fields who will prepare students to be stewards of social change in complex policy landscapes. Committed to the goals of liberal arts degrees, Cannabis Studies students will develop skills in critical and analytic thinking, writing, communication with diverse communities, as well as critical engagement with science and research. These skill sets are valued across areas of employment and advanced study and position our graduates for a broad range of professional pathways inside and outside those related to Cannabis: public policy and law, equity and justice advocacy, human services and regulatory agency work, research, and Masters or Doctoral degrees. The Cannabis Studies major does not include training or curriculum in cultivating, processing, or selling cannabis.

Graduates will learn principles of regenerative agriculture and environmental policy reform to prepare them for service in the public and private sector.
