Environmental Ethics Institute 2008
8:00 AM  University of Montana
Description:
We are pleased to announce the third session of the annual summer Environmental Ethics Institute at The University of Montana in beautiful Missoula, MT. Hosted by the Center for Ethics at UM, the 2008 Environmental Ethics Institute offers opportunities for formal education in environmental ethics via two innovative short courses. Courses held during past institutes drew a wide range of participants, including professors, graduate students, professionals (including environmental journalists) and community members. These courses are designed to offer all participants the opportunity for lively discussion and in-depth contemplation of environmental ethics, regardless of individual backgrounds.
Environmental Ethics and Policy will again be taught by Andrew Light, Associate Professor of Philosophy and Public Affairs at the University of Washington. This course includes an online component which begins July 1, and a week of face-to-face instruction held August 4-8, 2008.
Women, Health and the Environment is our new weekend short course offering, and will be taught by Karen Warren, Professor of Philosophy at Macalester College (St. Paul, MN) and renown eco-feminist philosopher. This course will be held the weekend of August 1-3.
Courses can be taken for 3 or 1 credit(s) respectively, or as workshops (no credit) at a reduced rate. Please visit our website for more information and registration instructions: http://www.umt.edu/ethics/programs/EEI.html
The 2008 EEI will also include a number of public lectures and discussion forums from renown speakers, all of which will be free of charge and open to both students and community members. As information on those events becomes available it will be posted on our website.
