the following requirements, totaling 12 credits:
1. Complete the following two core courses* (6 credits):

and Environmental Change: Issues and Concepts (3 credits)

and Environmental Change: Methodology and Application (3 credits)
*These two courses are offered in alternate years.
2. Complete one policy
course relevant to the specialization (3 credits)
3. Complete one elective
course relevant to the specialization (3 credits)
It is recommended that each student choose policy and elective
courses in consultation with the GJEC Coordinator to ensure the
courses provide the student with the necessary training and skills,
and contribute to a well-rounded program of study.
Successful completion of the courses that fulfill the GJEC
requirements may also apply to the student's degree, depending
upon the student's departmental degree requirements.
During the semester before graduation, the student must fill
out a form, available at GenCen (206 International Center), that confirms that the student has
completed the requirements for the specialization. The form will
be signed by the GJEC/WID Director and by the Assistant Dean,
and submitted to the MSU Registrar's Office. The specialization
will then appear on the student's transcript.
