Welcome to one of the most beautiful places on earth.

The Environmental Studies major is designed for students interested understanding and managing the interactions between the natural environment and human societies. Two degrees are offered. 

The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree emphasizes coursework in environmental science, biology, chemistry, and geology as well as additional courses in ecology, math, and physics. 

The Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree also includes courses in the sciences and math but adds additional work in the social sciences, humanities, and fine arts resulting in an interdisciplinary degree. 

Both degrees include internships and a senior project and both develop excellent writing and oral presentation skills. Our graduates will have developed a strong environmental ethic and are prepared for a wide variety of careers in environmental management and protection as well as graduate or professional programs.
