Why Study Environmental Science?
Our students are taught to go beyond the immediate issue at hand to look toward long-term solutions through the lenses of natural resource management, policy and sustainability. You’ll develop an understanding of research methods and statistics for natural sciences that will prepare you for advanced graduate study or immediate work in fields like conservation, natural resource management, soil science, agriculture or wildlife and fisheries management.
What You'll Learn
Our science-based program is the launching pad for a rich and engaging career. Your studies will focus on the interactions between living organisms and the natural environment through courses in biology, ecology, chemistry, zoology and botany. Students spend time in the lab and in the field, developing practical skills in research and scientific methodology. You’ll also examine the structure and function of natural systems for a comprehensive understanding of the interactions between living organisms and the environment.
