Bachelor of Science in Environmental Sciences (GEA) (Co-op)

4-Year Bachelor's Degree

Program Summary

The Environmental Sciences program is designed to provide a strong interdisciplinary grounding in specific environmental sciences including the socioeconomic context in which environmental issues are resolved. There is an emphasis within the program on management and decision-making skills for the application of scientific knowledge to environmental problems, and the evaluation of appropriate environmental policies. A practical perspective based on defining and resolving problems is central to the program, and this is often done in the context of group work.

Substantial emphasis is placed on communication skills, including the development of competence in both written and oral presentations. These skills will be progressively developed in core courses from the first to the fourth year. Students in the final year of their program will be expected to take part in more intensive communication skill development. Graduates can seek employment in a range of fields, from government agencies to private industry and research

After their first  year, students select one of four majors:
  • Ecology
  • Environment and Resource Management
  • Environmental Economics and Policy
  • Environmental Sciences
A principal aim of the Co-op program in Environmental Sciences is to facilitate the transition of students from academic studies to a professional career by enhancing the integration of theory and practice.
