Environmental Science
Environmental Science provides students with a strong background in areas of science related to environmental concerns.
It also provides them with an opportunity to study environmental problems from a scientific point of view that integrates biology, chemistry, earth science and physics. This concentration leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in the College of Arts, Sciences, and Letters and prepares students for careers in waste management, environmental consultation, teaching, environmental health and resource management.
