• The environmental science curriculum is interdisciplinary, drawing heavily from biology and chemistry. Students will take courses in entomology (the study of insects), herpetology (the study of reptiles and amphibians), ornithology (the study of birds), aquatic biology (the study of organisms in the ocean or other bodies of water), mycology (the study of fungi) and plant taxonomy.

    • Stream and landscape restoration
    • Conservation biology
    • Environmental law
    • Wetland delineation
    • Wildlife management
