OWU E&S 2021 Updates & Efforts (PDF)

OWU has a very strong E&S Department with three environmentally focused majors and a broad range of environmentally-focused courses due to the age of the program (the first in Ohio, 1978). A strong array of diverse environmental courses is something our peer institutions typically don’t have.

OWU has a very strong engagement component with the OWU Connection and OWU Career Connection. Engagement (internships, funded student projects, many credit-bearing) is central to our E&S majors. We are ahead of many of our peer institutions in the breadth of such options for students.

OWU has strong partnerships with a range of regional partners which provide diverse, engaged experiences for our majors. Partners include two organic farms (close to campus), the City of Delaware (environmental assessment, utilities, planning, fire department, etc.), the local water company, county park system, private environmental consultants, etc. OWU is ahead of our peer institutions in having well-established, diverse partners where we can accommodate a broad range of student interests.
