About the Environmental Earth Science Major
The Environmental Earth Science track focuses broadly on the natural sciences, using earth science as a base to expand outward. This track can accommodate the student's interest by incorporating classes in biology, hydology, hazardous waste management, ecology, and natural resources. Interrelationships are key to this course of study, with an emphasis on how the physical, biological, and chemical processes at the earth's surface affect each other.



This track is excellent preparation for graduate study in environmental science, but it also provides a strong foundation for work within governmental agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, United States Geological Survey or consulting firms, or broader involvement in land use planning, business, policy, law or management. If you are interested in teaching science in elementary or secondary education, this is a great way to obtain a good science foundation.
