Solving the world's environmental problems will require professionals who are trained in the sciences underlying these issues and who understand the wider human contexts of the challenges faced. The Bachelor of Science (Environmental Science) program will open up a wide range of career opportunities for those with environmental, conservation, and ecological interests. A solid grounding in the underlying science is essential for people intending to work in this field, as they will need to integrate across a range of disciplines, to devise solutions spanning the scientific and social issues involved.
