About
Impact of Ursinus
I cannot overstate the positive impact Ursinus, and more specifically the Environmental Studies Department, had on me. My classes were interesting, engaging, and directly relate to my career. Ursinus gave me the ability to critically think, increased my problem solving skills, taught me to effectively communicate with others, and prepared me for the transition into my career. The professors in the Environmental Studies Department taught me so much both professionally and personally. Without the support, guidance, and confidence I received from the department I would not be where I am today. They pushed me to try new things, exposed me to new subjects, and gave me the tools to succeed. Each professor in the Environmental Studies Department was a role model and mentor to me. I could not have asked for a better department to learn from and I am overjoyed to say that I still keep in touch with all of the Environmental Studies professors.
