       Far and away the greatest and most encouraging amount of mail we have received during the last few years at the Ecopsychology Institute comes from those who want to study ecopsychology. We have hundreds of letters from students of all ages and backgrounds asking where coursework and programs can be found. This confirms our belief that there is a growing academic interest in ecopsychology as a field of professional inquiry that speaks uniquely to both the inner and outer dimensions of the environmental crisis. We look forward to the day when ecopsychologists will find their place as consultants to environmental organizations and environmental lawyers, as policy-makers and therapists.


       At this point here are the best contacts we can offer for schools that are developing ecopsychology programs:
