Earth and Planetary Sciences is for those interested in the study of the physical, chemical, and biological processes that shape the Earth and other planets. It draws on the disciplines of geology, geochemistry, hydrology, ecology, geobiology, oceanography, and atmospheric science. The EPS major focuses on the study of physical, chemical, and biological processes that shape the Earth and the other planets. It is designed primarily for scientists who wish to have careers researching the science of the Earth and planets, although it is also suitable for students planning careers in the health professions.<br>The interdisciplinary, interdepartmental ENVS majors and minor introduce students to the science of the Earth and its living and nonliving systems, and to how humans interact with these systems. ENVS is also solution-focused, demonstrating how humans can use powerful tools, such as policy and communication, to help those systems. The goals are to advance awareness of the magnitude and consequences of these issues and to train the next generation of problem-solvers to address the effects of global environmental change.
