Help us save the planet with our Environmental science program
Why environmental science? Because “planet saver” isn’t a major. From human health to the global economy. Answer questions like "where do chemicals released in the environment go?" and "what impact they have?" When sustainability is your priority, learn more about the impact your leaving on the environment and what it is that you can do to become a game changer, a difference maker.
Environmental Science is a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree.
