Environmental scientists, particularly those working in consulting firms, benefit from a sound knowledge of management principles to help them implement environmental policy in the business environment. The program offers: considerable hands-on experience with equipment both in the laboratory and in the field; the opportunity to specialise with a minor in environmental biology or environmental chemistry; field trips as an integral part of the learning process; the opportunity to work on collaborative projects with industry, generally in small teams; a sound understanding of the principles of business management.
