Emily Woodward, Master's in Urban Ecology and Sustainable Planning, Unity College class of 2022.
"I found my way to Unity College after a months-long search for the perfect degree program that could bring together my passion for the environment and my career in planning. The Urban Ecology and Sustainable Planning degree was the perfect combination of those elements.
Between working full time and living in a place that doesn't offer much in the way of "green" degrees, being able to take my courses fully online with America's Environmental College was so exciting for me! I truly enjoyed all of my courses over these past few years, but I found I took a lot away from my Ethical Practice and Policy class. Climate Change, Ecology, and all manner of environmental issues are so deeply intertwined with ethics that many people don't realize it. I am taking with me a much higher level of knowledge regarding the interconnectedness of the world that will make me a much better person and help me to grow for years to come. I hope to take this knowledge and compassion along with my degree to progress in my career to a position where I can help people to feel included in the environmental world and become passionate advocates for conservation and to make my way to the Pacific Northwest.
