Environmental science
Environmental Science is a unique program that provides students with a broad understanding of the environment underpinned by a strong foundation in science. The program combines several academic approaches to facilitate critical interpretation and evaluation of studies on current environmental issues impacting humans and ecosystems. Students are encouraged to examine the social, economic and political contexts for these environmental issues, including legislative framework for management actions, and role of stake-holders in decision making.
