Environmental Science and Society

Our environmental science & society program has 6 concentrations to choose from, all of which lead to a bachelor's of science! None of our concentrations require a minor to fulfill graduation requirements. 

All ENVI students are recommended to first follow the common-core curriculum, ensuring preparation for enrollment into the capstone experience. Learn more about these core classes in our required courses page or the program catalog.
