Environmental Systems Science - BS

This program embraces the disciplines of environmental systems science to give students a rigorous interdisciplinary education including issues associated with environmental policy.

The increasing demands that population growth and affluence put on the natural resources and the Earth’s environment require greater numbers of trained professionals and informed citizens. The degree trains students for employment by industry, environmental and engineering consulting firms, non-governmental organizations, and governmental regulatory agencies, among other entities. Students focus on coursework in a particular environmental theme: coastal and marine environments, water, human impact on the environment, climate change, or biosphere.
