The Environmental Science Major
requires a minimum of
48 upper-level semester credits of science. Courses required
include: ENVS 1111/1311, 2311, 3308 or 3309, 4144, 4308,
4311 (or ENVM 5311), 4314, 4316, GEOL 3311, and 6 credits
from BIOL 3410, CHEM 4405, or GEOL 4315. The
Environmental Science Major also requires 29-31 credits of
foundation courses. Foundation course work required
include: BIOL 1106/1306 or 1107/1307, CHEM 1110, 1310,
1111, 1311; PHYS 1110, 1310, 1111, 1311; and MATH 1310,
1311, STAT 3312 or MATH 1420, 1421, 3312.
The Environmental Science Minor
is designed for the
student seeking a B.S. or B.A. degree in Biology, Chemistry,
or Geology with the emphasis on environmental-related
course work. The interdisciplinary nature of the minor gives
the student the holistic view required of an environmental
scientist without compromising the strength of the major. All
environmental science minors take ENVS 1111,1311,
2311,4144, 4311 (or ENVM 5311), ENVS 4314,and six credits
from ENVS 3308, 3309, 4316/ENVM 5316, or ENVM
4340/5340.
