Hi all! I'm new to this forum and am struggling to choose a program. I'm torn between Duke Nicholas (Water Resources Management), Yale FES (Water Resources Management) and Michigan SEAS (Sustainable Systems).
I'm leaning towards Duke because I enjoyed the campus atmosphere, quality of life in Durham, and opportunities to get involved in and out of the classroom. I visited earlier this year so I could see myself attending. From what I know, FES has a fairly similar curriculum but is more social science based.
What I like about SEAS is the emphasis on systems thinking, interdisciplinary courses, and EJ program. I could take some water courses through my concentration. However, since I wasn't able to visit campus (thanks COVID-19), it's hard for me to picture student life there.
Anyone else considering SEAS vs the Nic school or FES?
