The Earth and environmental sciences aspire to understand Earth’s dynamic history — how it “works” and documents its age and origin in rocks and landscapes; and how geological processes affect modern environmental and ecological systems. These studies provide vital perspectives into how Earth can simultaneously sustain and threaten life and influence human interaction. Students may study topics across geology, ecology, environmental science, climatology and environmental management. Program graduates are able to pursue careers in environmental policy and management, geospatial technology, meteorology, agriculture and government agencies.
