The core curriculum is designed to provide students with knowledge of the fundamental biological, chemical, physical, and applied aspects integral to the field of environmental science. In addition, students are exposed to many of the human dimensions that underlie environmental issues. This approach ensures a uniform preparation among students and allows for the development of a diversity of expertise necessary to address the complexity of present environmental problems and future unanticipated ones. The degree has been designed in part to address educational components of the National Occ
