Environmental Writing and Rhetoric Minor
Contact: Jacob Gedetsis
The Writing Program at ESF is a space where artistic and humanistic insights can find
creative ways to address our ecological crisis. The Environmental Writing minor creates
a path to develop the expertise of environmentally-minded humanists and artists to
make sense of, represent, and respond holistically to the natural world. Students
in the minor engage in audience-centered approaches to writing, reading, and communicating
across genres and contexts. They develop skills in environmental storytelling, digital
literacies, and presentation to better prepare them to be active participants in academic,
professional, and civic life. Why add this minor? Our students find that there are
often multiple skill sets that careers demand of them and increasing one’s exposure
to, and practice of, writing can help with job placement and security. The minor also
provides the ability to flex already existing interests in the creative world, all
while exploring how writing functions in public spheres. Whether you love to read
or write, the minor provides an opportunity to engage with wide-ranging composition
skills, including criticism, creative writing, journalism, publishing, editing, and
tutoring.

Recreation Resource and Protected Area Management Minor
Coordinator: Danielle Kloster
This minor provides students with the opportunity to combine visitor management with protected area management. Understanding the need to balance the opportunity for visitor experiences with protecting and stewarding protected areas provides professional insight into planning and managing those areas for limited visitor access. Understanding the motivations, preferences, and behavior of recreational users is necessary to integrate the human dimensions into protected area management with consideration of the social and environmental factors related to such management. Protected area managers need to be able to manage both the resource itself as well as a wide variety of users, such as campers, hikers, bird watchers, boaters, nature photographers and others who enjoy nature-based experiences in extensive protected area environments owned by public agencies, private landowners, or NGOs.
Students from all programs at ESF are eligible for this minor if they have completed a general ecology course and have a cumulative grade point average of 2.70 or better in their major program of study after one semester at ESF (or as a transfer student with same standing). Overlap between the minor and both one required course and one directed elective for a student’s major is permitted; other courses taken for the minor can not overlap with the major.

Renewable Energy Minor
Coordinator: Dr. Tim Volk
The development of sustainable sources of energy has become a critical national and global issue due to concerns about the quality and quantity of the different potential resources, energy security, and potential impacts of each on the environment and human health. It is essential that our society and energy professionals understand the production and conversion of different forms of energy, their current and future supplies, the markets and policy mechanisms that regulate their supply, and the associated impacts on the environment for each fuel. In the past both traditional and renewable energy sources have been studied one resource at a time and usually from the perspective of a single discipline. This minor provides students an opportunity to examine different sources of traditional and renewable energy simultaneously in the context of our total energy use using a systems perspective. Students are exposed to views from a variety of disciplines which allows them to consider a wide array of issues related to current and future energy supply and use.
The Renewable Energy minor is available to all ESF and Syracuse University undergraduate students (except students who are in the Sustainable Energy Management Major and Environmental Science’s Renewable Energy option) who have a GPA of 2.70 or better by the end of their sophomore year. The minor requires a minimum of 15 credits, 12 of which are required courses. The remaining 3 credits can be selected from a list of suggested courses.

Urban Forestry Minor
Coordinator: Dr. Eddie Bevilacqua
The Urban Forestry minor will provide students with the opportunity to better understand complex human-dominated ecosystems where trees and people coexist in close proximity. Understanding and attempting to manage this complexity requires a basic knowledge of plant physiology, nutrition, and tending at the individual tree level (arboriculture). In addition, the urban forester also must understand the changing dynamic of groups of trees and the effects of those trees on numerous ecosystem services and human health and well-being in a city (urban forestry). Because human activity is so dominant in the urban ecosystem, it is essential that the urban forester have some understanding of ecological interactions and human motivations for sustaining and maintaining existing trees (urban ecology). The courses listed below will provide the professional knowledge required for careers in these and related fields.
