St. Mary's University's Department of Environmental Sciences uses an interdisciplinary approach to provide a rigorous undergraduate course in environmental science. Our goal is to provide students with academic preparation so that they can make a positive contribution to an environmentally healthy future.
Environmental science uses scientific ideas and methods to help shape and protect the future of our environment. It combines the science behind environmental systems with the theories necessary to manage and protect them.
The Saint Mary’s approach:
Science courses can cover a variety of topics, such as environmental science, biology, chemistry, geology, and geography, and incorporate environmental policy, management, and monitoring methods. You will have the flexibility to choose elective courses in almost any department of the university, including economics, sociology, political science, business, and international development studies.
Customize your Bachelor of Science degree based on your interests. We offer environmental science majors, honors, and professions. If you major in art or business, you can also combine environmental science majors.
An ideal setting:
St. Mary's is an ideal place to study environmental issues, and you can use the nearby marine and terrestrial environments, including the Oak Forest Living Laboratory. The professor has links to unique knowledge-sharing centers such as Coastal CURA and the Atlantic Green Chemistry Center. St. Mary is also home to facilities such as green roof testing facilities and environmental analysis and restoration centers.
