The Environmental Science graduate certificate is an independent credential designed for individuals who already hold a bachelor's degree or current graduate students enrolled in other programs at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga.
This program helps graduate students expand their expertise in fundamental Environmental Science (ESC) concepts. Our curriculum covers key ESC domains such as Natural Resources, Environmental Law, and Ecological Processes. Participants collaborate with industry experts to address contemporary environmental challenges. ESC knowledge has become crucial as diverse sectors - including government bodies, NGOs, consulting firms, educational institutions, and private corporations - increasingly demand both broad and specialized environmental expertise. This 15-credit hour program, consisting of five courses, serves professionals seeking career advancement, graduate students wanting to complement their studies with ESC specialization, and degree holders aiming to deepen their environmental knowledge for professional growth.
