BA Earth Sciences - Environmental Science

Environmental scientists play a growing role in protecting, conserving, restoring, evaluating, managing, and understanding the complex interactions and connections between the atmosphere, lithosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere.  These roles exist at the local, regional, national and global scale where innovation and problem solving are increasingly in demand as human-nature interactions put pressures on the environment. The skills and knowledge acquired, applied, and practiced through this proposed Environmental Sciences Concentration are particularly relevant across society today and competent graduates are increasingly in demand.
