Hello PCC grads-


A course that could be used to satisfy the Climate Research Seminar
requirement of the Graduate Certificate in Climate Science--Climate Change
Vulnerability, Adaptation & Societal Transformations; SEFS 550, still has a
few seats open for winter quarter. The course has run successfully for two
years and is now in its third iteration.

"It offers a deeply interdisciplinary introduction to the human dimensions
of climate change vulnerability (including understanding various
disciplinary and epistemic positions across geography, sociology, and
anthropology), an interrogation of existing adaptation solutions across
various sectors, and it poses larger questions around the needed set of
transformations required to comprehensive reduce long-term climate risk."

The seminar (SEFS 550) runs Mondays from 2:30 – 5:20 pm. The SEFS course
listings for Winter 2025 can be found here
<https://www.washington.edu/students/timeschd/WIN2025/sefs.html>.

A syllabus from last year is attached.

Happy Holidays,
Miriam
