Bachelor of Science - Umweltwissenschaften

Combine your passion for the natural world with biogeochemistry, biology, chemistry, and ecology to address and solve human and environmental issues.

Gain an advanced scientific and quantitative understanding of contemporary environmental issues with a Bachelor of Science degree in environmental science. Take advantage of research opportunities in the region's many lakes and rivers, forests and mountain ranges, or walk outside your residence hall to the campus pond, fields, maple sugar house, permaculture garden and tree nursery, or 86-acre certified tree farm. Combine your classroom and laboratory learning with field studies courses in the Colorado River basin, the desert Southwest, the island community of Martha’s Vineyard, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, or the tropical communities of Belize.
