As environmental science majors, students will engage in problem-solving studies related to water and soil quality, economics, environmental policy, political science, resource management and engineering. They will also gain important skills in communication, philosophy, ethics and sociology. An environmental science degree is versatile. Graduates are employed in a wide range of fields and sectors including private, non-profit and government agencies.
