Geoscience - Environmental Science Major Map
Overview
The Geoscience: Environmental Geoscience major program provides students with a foundation in traditional geology plus the knowledge and experience essential for success in environmental or other interdisciplinary fields like water resources, conservation, land use planning, environmental policy or climate science. Additional interdisciplinary coursework allows graduates to market themselves to a wide range of potential employers while the foundational coursework better prepares them for more traditional careers than many environmental science graduates from other universities.
