Environmental quality is a central problem in society. How can
we restore polluted environments and protect endangered species
in the face of increasing development and an expanding human population?
The Environmental Science major in the College of Arts and Sciences
is tailored to students who want a flexible science degree that
is centered around environmental issues. It emphasizes basic
approaches to understanding the environment and environmental
problems. Students completing this major will have the analytical
skills and technical background necessary to compete in the job
market for environmental science, or to continue with advanced
studies in a graduate degree program.
