Why Take Environmental Science?
Environmental science is the study of interactions within the earth's biosphere, concentrating on
natural and man-made perturbations such as pollution. A Bachelor's degree in Environmental Science prepares
students for careers in areas such as pollution remediation, resource conservation, or environmental
management, as well as providing a firm foundation for graduate studies.
With an environmental science degree, you could work for agencies such as the California Department
of Water Resources, the Environmental Protection Agency, and many state agencies. You might also be
employed by private companies specializing in such things as engineering or environmental
consulting, and pollution remediation.
