Are you curious about how organisms interact with their environments?
Do you want hands-on experience doing science in nature?
The environmental science program is a 60-credit Associate of Science degree program that provides a broad based understanding of basic sciences and important environmental and social issues. The AS program will prepare students with content-based and experiential-based knowledge in the environmental science field, so students can gain access to a career in the interdisciplinary field of environmental science or continue on to a four-year degree in an environmental science field. The research experience intends to equip students with practical experience to integrate the knowledge gained in class to real, applied situations in a setting of their choice (e.g., city, county, park, nature center, school, etc.) where they can put their knowledge to work and learn about an important environmental issue of their choice.
The Environmental Science program also serves as the first two years of a Bachelor’s degree in Biology (Environmental Science option) offered at Winona State University (WSU); there is an articulation agreement to facilitate this transfer.
