专业概况
在这里学什么？The Master of Science in Environmental Sciences and Policy (MS ES&P) is an interdisciplinary degree program that combines a series of science and policy core courses with a breadth of specialized classes from across the University. Lasting solutions to most environmental problems are likely to be found at the nexus of the natural and social sciences. The MS ES&P program provides applied, cross-disciplinary training to prepare students to solve environmental problems using the scientific method combined with an in-depth knowledge of the political system. Students gain this knowledge through their individual thesis research and coursework in quantitative research methods, natural sciences and political sciences. This two-year degree program has two distinct emphasis areas: Environmental Sciences and Policy, and Paleoenvironmental Sciences. The core courses for both emphases include: 1) The Environmental Science-Policy Interface (ENV 555), 2) two research methods seminars (ESS 505, 506), 3) one or more quantitative analysis courses, and 4) thesis credits. All ES&P students work closely with a faculty adviser to design and implement individual thesis research. Students in the Environmental Sciences and Policy emphasis generally focus their coursework and research on the science-policy interface and may examine a wide range of environmental problems such as issues related to food security, pollution, or resource management. Students in Paleoenvironmental Sciences emphasis generally analyze ancient environments to gain insights to help predict future environmental dynamics, particularly related to climate change.
Available Emphasis Areas: Science and Policy – Emphasis; Paleoenvironmental Sciences – Emphasis.
Students in this advanced degree program position themselves to not only understand the environment, but also to act on its behalf by influencing future policy. This thesis-oriented plan allows for the creation of an individualized program of study, as unique as the student's interests, guided by an engaged research committee.
Careers
Do you want to learn how to solve environmental problems? Do you want a career in research, industry, education, government, or public service? Do you want to increase your knowledge about how the Earth and environmental systems operate, and learn how to translate the science to appropriate decision-making processes?
If so, the Master of Science in Environmental Sciences and Policy program may be for you. This program offers you strong advising from accomplished faculty for an individualized experience that combines multidisciplinary study, research, and applied projects. These projects often reach across campus and into the greater community, allowing you to build relationships and skills outside of your department. The rigorous training in the natural and political sciences that you will receive in this program will prepare you for successful environmental careers in industry, government, and the non-profit sector.
