Environmental Science Minor

The Environmental Science program prepares students for graduate and professional careers. Our graduates have successfully been admitted to doctoral programs in environmental science, environmental health, Library Sciences, and Law (J.D.). Graduates of our program have succeeded in a wide range of professional career paths such as Texas Commission for Environmental Quality, Texas Railroad Commission, private sector environmental regulations careers, and have pursued additional environmental graduate work.

Our small class sizes provide students with many opportunities to learn from faculty both inside and outside of the classroom. Your professors will know your name. We are invested in your success. We can add great depth to letters of reference or recommendation! Our graduates are successful at seeking and entering further graduate work, including doctoral studies, and career paths.

All of our environmental science graduates have a landed meaningful employment in the field within six months of graduation or have continued their academic preparation with doctoral studies or other master’s work (Library Studies). Students moving on to graduate programs have been accepted at the University of North Texas, University of Texas – Arlington, Texas Tech, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
