Place-Based Education Undergraduate Certificate
Place-based education is an approach grounded in the local environment, its various narratives, and the lived experience of students. Our local environment – with its natural and human histories, economic and social issues, and political and ecological dynamics – provides a robust and integrative context for teaching and learning.The certificate is open to all UVM students.
