Anyone heard about Bard Center for Environmental Policy

Has anyone heard about Bard College Center for Environmental Policy? It offers M.S. degree in environmental policy.... I know its a small college program compared with universities' MEM/MPP/MPA programs... what do you guys think of it? I searched for no post on it... main concern is on the program opportunities, networking and resources.. Thanks a lot!!

Bumping an old thread, as I'm thinking of applying to the same MS in Environmental Policy program. Does anyone have any thoughts on the program at Bard?

I considered applying to Bard CEP. It appears to be a solid program that emphasizes interdisciplinary study coupled with internship experience. However, there is virtually no information on how it is perceived and seems relatively new -- Bard is a good school, but doesn't have many graduate offerings in the first place.

Honestly, it looks like a good program built around a useful curriculum, but its unknown reputation (and no data on student/class profiles) is hard to ignore. The prerequisite requirements also dissuaded me from applying -- if you're coming from a social science, it would weigh you down initially.
