If you are interested in conservation of endangered animals, the impact of climate change on your city, renewable energy sources, solutions to air, land, and water pollution, and sustainable lifestyles,then this is the major for you. Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary field that integrates concepts and techniques from a variety of disciplines including (but not limited to): biology, ch

emistry, ecology, climatology, geospatial technology, microbiology, political science, ethics, geology, sociology, economics, and philosophy. Environmental scientists focus on the study of the environment and the solution to environmental problems. Environmental science provides an integrated, quantitative, and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental systems. Environmental scientists work on subjects such as the , evaluating local food systems, pollution control and mitigation, natural resource management, perceptions and policies towards the environment, and the effects of global climate change. Environmental scientists and specialists use their knowledge of the natural sciences to protect the environment and human health. They may clean up polluted areas, advise policy makers, or work with industry to reduce waste. Environmental scientists and specialists work in offices and laboratories. Some may spend time in the field gathering data and monitoring environmental conditions firsthand. Most environmental scientists and specialists work full time. The median annual wage for environmental scientists and specialists varies depending on location and experience and falls between $69,400 and $122,510. Employment of environmental scientists and specialists is projected to grow close to10 percent between now and to 2030, faster than the average for similar occupations. Environmental Scientists and technicians have high job stability and low unemployment rates. Heightened public interest in the hazards facing the environment, as well as the demands placed on the environment by population growth, is expected to further increase demand for environmental scientists and specialists.
