The energy-environment challenge is a defining issue of our time, and one of Harvard’s greatest contributions to meeting that challenge will be the education of a new generation of leaders in science, business, law, and public service. Harvard has a responsibility to create opportunities for its undergraduate students to broaden and deepen their understanding of the complexities associated with energy and environmental issues, and provide them with the tools needed to address our challenges now and into the future.

The Environmental Science and Public Policy Concentration, in coordination with the Harvard University Center for the Environment, offers the Secondary Field in Energy and Environment (E&E) to increase students' exposure to, and literacy in, the interconnecting set of issues related to energy and the environment. Through debate and dialogue in coursework and seminars, students identify the obstacles, highlight the opportunities, and define the discussion for an energy-environment strategy for the 21st century and beyond.
