The Department of Environmental Science offers three degrees: B.A. in environmental planning and policy, B.S. in environmental science, and a B.S. in environmental safety and health. Each of these prepares students for a variety of professional roles in the environmental and safety fields, and encourages students to pursue graduate academic and professional degrees and professional certifications.
Our graduates find employment in many settings, including federal, state, and local government; construction; civil and environmental engineering consultancies; insurance; and industry ranging from health care to semi-conductor manufacturer.
All students in the Department of Environmental Science complete a core set of courses and laboratory training in a broad range of perspectives and skills including environmental science, ecology, chemistry, communication, environmental regulations, impact assessment, and research methods. Additionally, the program requires students to specialize in an area of choice.
