Bachelor of Science with a major in Environmental Earth Science

Environmental earth science encompasses all aspects of the environment where erosion, sediment transport and deposition play a role. This includes landscape processes, ecological function, environmental health and the distribution and remediation of environmental contaminants. You will explore soil formation and health, river processes and management, coastal zone geomorphic processes and management, pollutants and contaminants in soil and sediment. You will also interpret climate and environmental change from biological and sediment records. Our graduates are in high demand for environmental management, and for research. You can complete much of the major through distance education, particularly in the first and second years.
