The School provides foundational programs in two disciplines: Environmental Science BSc (Major and Minor) and Environmental Studies BA (Major and Minor). These programs are designed to complement studies in related academic fields. For instance, the Environmental Science Major pairs well with Majors like Environment & Health, Environmental Ethics, Earth and Environmental Systems, Environmental Geography, Forest Conservation Science, Physical & Environmental Geography, Biomedical Toxicology, Chemistry, Physics, Biodiversity and Conservation Biology, or Environmental Biology. Similarly, the Environmental Studies Major can be combined with BA Majors such as Political Science, Economics, Women and Gender Studies, Human Geography, Forest Conservation, Architecture, or BSc Majors like Environmental Biology, Physics, or Forest Conservation Science. This dual-major approach equips students with both specialized expertise and interdisciplinary perspective.
The Environmental Science BSc Major and Minor programs address the multifaceted nature of environmental challenges by incorporating diverse scientific perspectives. Students gain broad scientific knowledge and develop skills to synthesize principles from physical and biological sciences across various scales. Central to these programs is the scientific examination and innovative problem-solving for environmental issues. Students acquire both specialized and interdisciplinary research capabilities essential for careers in environmental science. The Environmental Studies BA Major and Minor, meanwhile, offer an interdisciplinary curriculum for those pursuing environmental work within social sciences or humanities. These programs critically examine the economic, social, cultural, and political factors behind environmental challenges like biodiversity loss, pollution, and climate change. By combining scientific literacy with analytical skills, students learn to assess complex environmental issues and develop sustainable solutions for ecological and societal well-being.
