    About

    Environmental Science scholars ask questions such as: How can colony collapse disorder be prevented? Should genetically modified food be labeled as such? How does intensive farming impact plant biodiversity?

    Environmental Science uses a multidisciplinary approach to understand the changes in our natural and human environment. During the course of your studies, much of your learning will occur while actively working on problems in the field, with supplementary learning in laboratories and classrooms. This program will provide you with key skills that include data collection and analysis, written and oral communication skills, and experience collaborating within teams.
