Academic Accelerator - Bachelor of Science - Environmental Science

Program Description 

The Academic Accelerator Program (AAP) is a two-semester program designed specifically for students who are ready to succeed in immersive English-speaking classrooms, but also includes the benefit of English-language and student support to help them thrive.

Environmental science focuses on ecosystem management, the effects of pollutants on ecosystems, ways to restore polluted environments to their natural state, and effective strategies toward minimizing pollution (preventative management). The Environmental Science major at Cleveland State University provides education in the fundamentals of all the major areas of modern Environmental Science, training in current laboratory skills, as well as environmental policy.

Skills developed within this major include but are not limited to: a working knowledge of biology, chemistry, physics and math and in-depth knowledge of the environment, critical thinking and analysis, experimental design, communication, time management, and problem-solving.
