This program is well suited to students who wish to focus on the scientific and technical aspects of environmental issues. Graduates are broadly trained in a wide variety of scientific disciplines (biology, chemistry, geology, physics) and are finding jobs in environmental engineering firms, regional and state governmental agencies, and more. Some go on to polish their skills in graduate degree programs. Special aspects of our Winthrop program include training in geographic information systems software (a sought-after job skill) and an experiential learning requirement (internships, research projects, etc.) which provides some real world experiences before they graduate.
