Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science - Geoscience (Tacoma)

The bachelor of science degree in Environmental Science provides students with a strong science background with a focus on the environmental issues of the future. Through lecture, lab and field classes, you will get hands-on experience with biology, chemistry, the geosciences, physics and math. In this program students learn how to draw connections between these disciplines needed to solve the complex environmental problems facing the local community and society at large. As part of the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences, this degree allows you to combine diverse approaches to the environment which incorporate humanities and the social sciences. Through coursework and independent study, you will develop skills needed for scientific research, technical writing and grant preparation. A culminating capstone experience gives you the opportunity to work with a scientist on your own undergraduate research project or to intern with a community group to gain practical experience. Our program prepares you to work in government, academic, private or non-profit careers or to continue your education in a variety of scientific disciplines. Geoscience is one of three study options under the Environmental Science major. Within the Environmental Science major, students are guided to additional coursework in biology, geology, ecology, and other earth systems and are given the opportunity to develop deeper skills in methods applicable to these areas. Our faculty?s teaching and research interests span these topics and more. Our program emphasizes high impact practices such as undergraduate research, experiential and active learning, internships, and service learning, and projects that are use-inspired and community engaged.
