The focus of the environmental geosciences program is to develop professional environmental scientists and geoscientists for careers in all facets of resource management, environmental protection and sustainable development. You will take classes focused on water and land resources and environmental stewardship. You?ll also explore human demands on mineral and energy resources, as well as land development, that historically have presented challenges to the health and quality of habitats and natural systems.?Geoscientists work in a variety of fields, from environmental consulting and regulatory agencies to compliance programs at energy firms. Graduates of the environmental geosciences program have found jobs in soil- and water-quality testing, stream restoration, contaminant characterization and remediation, and air-quality assessment. With its roots in geology, the environmental geosciences program benefits from the strength of the geology curriculum offerings and rigor, with a multidisciplinary appeal.?
