Bachelor's Degree
The Aquatic Resources degree program provides students with a comprehensive framework for studying water systems - including groundwater, watersheds, wetlands, lakes, rivers, and oceans - and explores human management approaches through various social, economic, and political frameworks.
Some of today's most pressing issues, both currently and in coming years, revolve around water resources. These challenges encompass climate change, renewable energy initiatives, water rights and availability, coastal community decline, invasive species, environmental protection, and maintaining sustainable food production (through fisheries, farming, and aquaculture).
Degree Options: Aquatic Resources and Mathematics and Statistics
