An environmental science degree offers interdisciplinary versatility, equipping you with tools from various fields to tailor a program aligned with your professional aspirations.
Those earning a Bachelor of Science (BS) in environmental science gain preparation for roles in environmental compliance, natural resource management, environmental health and safety, as well as for advanced academic programs.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports strong demand for environmental scientists, driven by rising public concern about environmental risks, climate change, and the challenges of population growth. Employment opportunities are particularly abundant in state/local governments and consulting industries. Projections indicate environmental scientist roles will grow by 8% over the next decade - outpacing average job growth (5%) as well as demand for wildlife biologists (5%), chemists (4%), and geoscientists (6%).
Beyond traditional Environmental Scientist roles, this degree opens doors to diverse positions not typically classified under that title. Our program's curriculum satisfies educational requirements for roles including wetlands biologist, biological science technician, ecologist, natural resources manager, conservation specialist, environmental educator, and forestry technician across private, government, and nonprofit sectors. Graduates may also pursue advanced degrees and professional programs.

Qualification Requirements
Admission is selective and based on a combination of secondary school core curriculum (a set of required secondary school classes), ACT and/or SAT composite scores (if available), grade point average (GPA), and class rank percentile. (For non-ranking schools, GPA will be used to evaluate your application).
International students must fulfill the same admission requirements as domestic applicants, but standardized test scores (ACT or SAT) are not required but should be submitted if available. Meeting the minimum requirements, however, does not guarantee admission, nor does it guarantee admission to a particular program. Missouri S&T appreciates well-rounded students and evaluates each application individually.
Missouri S&T may request that you provide an official transcript evaluation from the World Education Services (WES). If this is required, it will be visible on your application checklist after submission of your application, or an admissions representative will contact you to request it.
Minimum English proficiency test score requirements are 80 for TOEFL, 6.5 for IELTS, 58 for PTE, or 105 for Duolingo. We also accept SAT ERW score minimum of 500.
