Environmental Sciences and Studies

Graduate Programs

Environmental Science and Environmental Studies students are well prepared to continue their education in a number of masters and PhD programs. Because our majors are interdisciplinary, students can go on to pursue a diversity of programs. Students who are considering graduate school are encouraged to consult with faculty members in the department and to research a range of programs based on their specific interests. 

Programs will have different admissions requirements and may expect applicants to have taken particular undergraduate classes. Therefore, it is important to plan ahead so that you can incorporate any necessary coursework into your college plan. Many programs also require that you take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE), which will need to be scheduled well in advance.
