Why Study in Environmental Science

It is our responsibility to balance our needs with the preservation of the Earth’s resources to secure the needs of future generation, which we often referrer as sustainable development. Promoting sustainable development needs to optimize our consumption besides ensuring environmental quality. This requires understanding highly complex interaction among the components of the earth system, which ultimately demands integration of wide array of sciences. Thus, undergraduate and graduate study in Environmental Science is distinct from many other scientific fields and the demand for expertise in Environmental Sciences is increasing rapidly in the job market. We have designed our study programs to expose students to diverse branches of Environmental Science to prepare them for careers in government regulatory agencies, planning and consulting firms, and academic research institutions.
