The Environmental Studies concentration is another option for Biology majors.
Beginning in the late 1960's, the modern environmental movement grew out of public awareness of a need for action in addressing environmental issues. Encompassing issues such as climate change, conservation, water and soil contamination, responsible use of natural resources, waste management and air pollution, environmental science is a multi-disciplinary field of scientific...
The public is vitally awre of the many threats to the natural resources and ecosystems of the planet including population growth, environmental pollution, and excessive use of energy. A curriculum is available to prepare for this area.
The Environmental Science Option at Francis Marion University offers students the choice of specialization in environmental science at the undergraduate level. It is offered in three existing majors: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. The Environmental Science Option will require the completion of recommended General Education courses, a required Core Curriculum of science and mathematics courses, and requirements for the student's major. 125 to 127...
Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary major firmly based in the liberal arts tradition. The major involves faculty, courses, and student research in three of the College‘s strongest departments, Earth and Environment, Biology and Chemistry. Earth and Environment provides an administrative home for the program, but students benefit from contacts with faculty and other students in all three departments. We offer small classes taught by professors...
Environmental Science is a growing field that combines the natural sciences with the social sciences. Students pursuing the Environmental Science Major at Franklin Pierce University examine the relationship between humans and the natural world, and its implications for current and emerging environmental issues.
In addition to this broad training, students have the flexibility to choose either a Bachelor Science (B.S.) or a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.)...
Earth is the only home we have. Helping students understand how our planet functions, the limits of earth‘s resources, and the capacity of humans to alter global processes for the common good are the goals of the Furman program in earth and environmental sciences.
The strength of the Furman program in earth and environmental sciences is its emphasis on undergraduate teaching in both classroom and research settings, which provides excellent preparation...
Gannon University believes in supporting curious people who want to understand nature, learn how it works and make the world a better place to live. If you worry about what humans have done to our planet, the possible result of the changes that we have caused, and the kind of world our children will later inherit from us, Gannon‘s environmental science program can help you achieve your goal of making a difference.
The Department of Natural Sciences at Gardner-Webb now offers a major in environmental science. Depending on their interests and career goals, students may choose from two tracks within the major: environmental chemistry or ecology.
The interdisciplinary nature of the major exposes students to a diverse range of topics including environmental chemistry, environmental biology, physics, and economics. Emphasis is also placed on field work, experimental...
The concentration in Environmental Science and Public Policy is designed to provide a multi-disciplinary introduction to current problems of the environment. It is founded on the premise that the ability to form rational judgments concerning many of the complex challenges confronting society today involving the environment requires both an understanding of the underlying scientific and technical issues and an appreciation for the relevant economic,...
The Division offers a unique experience in undergraduate education in Environmental Sciences and Engineering for students interested in pursuing concentrations or taking electives in this area.
Rigorous training is offered in computer modeling and mathematical, chemical, and biological analysis of natural systems, with cases drawn from aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environments. Many undergraduates participate in the aircraft and ground-based...
The Earth Systems major at Stanford University is a broad based interdisciplinary environmental science program for undergraduates. The course of study focuses on environmental processes and issues on regional to global scales. After completing a cognate core designed to introduce students to different components of the environment's functions, students focus their studies through one of six tracks: Anthrosphere, Biosphere, Geosphere, Energy Science...
