Earth Sciences Major!
Check out NEW MAJOR: Environmental Systems Science (BS)
Earth Scientists focus on today’s pressing challenges to society: earthquake risk, sustainability, water resources, ocean health, natural resources and societal impact of changing climate/atmospheric chemistry. We also tackle the foremost problems in the earth sciences: the temporal and spatial evolution of life, habitability, the origin and movement of Earth’s crust, deep earth structure and the study of complex chemical cycles.
Our major is flexible and can be tailored to your interest in Geology, Oceanography, Environmental Science, Geophysics, Geobiology, Data Science, and more!
