Program Description

Participate in a master in Environmental Humanities that believes in the contribution that the humanities can make to promoting awareness of social-ecological issues and sustainability.

Study in English, in an international environment, and with an approach that is at once interdisciplinary and intercultural, combining the humanities and cultural studies with natural and social sciences. The master in Environmental Humanities aims to train specialists in the field of culture, academics, and leaders capable of envisioning and bringing about systemic changes for an environmentally sustainable future.

Benefit from the unique position of Venice as a global hotspot for environmental humanities. Venice is not only a crossroads of civilizations and the world capital of contemporary art and culture, but also a city at the forefront of the battle against sea level rise. Classroom teaching will be enriched by experiential learning opportunities of fieldwork and internships.
