Students may also explore interdisciplinary interactions among these components of environmental science. Through rigorous and varied coursework, along with access to researches associated with Tarleton State University, Texas A&M AgriLife Research, and the Texas Institute for Applied Environmental Research (TIAER) students can develop an environmental science program that fits their own career interests. Faculty in the Master of Science in Environmental Science degree program have expertise in the following areas:

  • Surface and ground water quality
  • Environmental land-use management
  • Environmental impacts of pollutants
  • Environmental education
