Environmental Science Major Advising

By its nature, environmental science takes place in a global context. There is much to be gained through acquiring an understanding of how the particular environments, histories, and traditions of other cultures both shape and are shaped by environmental factors. Study abroad is one very exciting way to discover new approaches to environmental science and build up your skills.

Study abroad provides many opportunities to further your study of the world’s environments and ecosystems by experiencing them for yourself, and from an international perspective. You could work on an urban environmental program in a foreign city! Study conservation biology or tropical ecology on the Caribbean coast, in close proximity to splendid mountains, lush rainforests, and smoking volcanoes of Costa Rica! These are just a few of the exciting possibilities offered by study abroad programs.

You can also fulfill Environmental Science elective requirements, take General education classes, explore general electives in a subject of your choice, or immerse yourself in language study and internships. Whole worlds open up when your education goes international!
