Our degrees prepare students for rewarding careers in the vital green economy by ensuring students have the knowledge and skills they need to succeed.
The Environmental Studies Master of Science program is designed to prepare students for careers as environmental professionals or to pursue further academic training in Ph.D. and other advanced degree programs. Global and local perspectives are integrated in the coursework and the faculty and students embrace a diversity of perspectives.
