multidisciplinary approach for undergraduate students interested in the broad span of
environmental topics while providing a strong foundation in either a B.A. degree in
Environmental Studies or a B.S. degree in Environmental Science.

environment and who can communicate effectively. The core of the program consists of
a unique blend of required courses supplemented by key electives dependent upon the
particular interests and needs of students. Required courses span the fields of biological,
