"I really enjoy environmental sciences. I love the fact that it is so interdisciplinary.
I've taken classes from atmospheric dynamics to microbiology. I love it!"
- Alumni Quote

 

Influence of atmospheric chemistry on climate and air quality. Role of microbial diversity of ocean biogeochemistry. Energy transport across the Earth's oceans, atmosphere, and cryosphere. These are just a few of questions being answered by researchers who study the science of the Earth as a system. The Bachelor of Science program provides students with a solid scientific understanding of Earth system science, which can lead to careers in science, research, or technical fields.
