The Environmental Sciences Program draws upon knowledge from faculty members across campus and spanning many departments and disciplines, including Aquatic Ecology, Biology, Biogeochemistry, Chemistry, Climate Science, Ecology, Ecological Design, Forest Science, Geography, Geosciences, Geospatial Technologies, Hydrology, Plant Biology, Plant and Soil Science, Physics, and Watershed Science. They are scholars in their fields and offer opportunities for students to engage in meaningful undergraduate and graduate research.
