The Association of Environmental Studies and Sciences (AESS) 2018 conference invites attendees to participate in defining priorities, ask questions, produce answers, and implement solutions in order to address the need for much broader and richer inclusion in all aspects of environmental studies and sciences.

The AESS annual conference brings an interdisciplinary approach to environmental issues in an academic setting. Taking a collegial approach where ideas are shared in small, informal sessions that are panel, paper, and presentation based and include roundtable discussions at meals, students, professors, and government and industry professionals alike participate in lively and interactive sessions that cover topics across the conference theme.
