At SEI, undergraduate students and faculty work together to further our understanding of environmental change.
SEI promotes the use of the University of the South's ecologically and culturally diverse 13,000-acre campus as a living laboratory for the interdisciplinary study of people and the land. SEI offers field-based educational programs at the undergraduate and pre-college level, and fosters faculty-mentored student research on the Cumberland Plateau and beyond.
