The School for Environment and Sustainability is the school of environmental science and sustainability studies at the University of Michigan, a public research university in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
The School for Environment and Sustainability was founded as the School of Forestry in 1927 in the Kraus Building, it is now housed in the S.T. Dana Building. SEAS provides graduate-level degrees at the doctorate and master's levels. Prior to 2004, the School of Natural Resources and Environment offered undergraduate degrees in Environmental Science and Environmental Policy, before restructuring as a graduate-level degree program.
The school houses several research centers, works with experts in other fields at the University of Michigan, and works towards the goals of protecting the earth's resources and pursuing the achievement of a sustainable society.[citation needed]
