Course Overview

Earning an environmental science degree from RIT gives you the problem-solving skills needed to be successful in the field. This major combines a love for nature with cutting edge research to create a sustainable future for our planet. Meaningful fieldwork gives you experience in solving real-world problems.

Environmental scientists solve problems relating to power generation, waste reduction and recycling, pollution control, land use, and land cover change, preserving biodiversity and ecological services, transportation, forestry, agriculture, economics, and a wide range of other areas. They study our relationship to nature and to each other, developing solutions that prevent or reverse environmental deterioration and work toward sustainability. Meeting these challenges requires problem-solving abilities based in science, mathematics, the social sciences, and other disciplines. This is an interdisciplinary degree with a strong foundation in biology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, and geographic information systems. The BS program provides you with the education and experiences you’ll need to be successful.
