环境科学理学硕士

追求环境科学硕士学位可为学生提供有关环境保护和修复以及植物生长和生理的研究和教育机会。学生将选择校园内各个部门教授的土壤科学，生物学和环境相关课程的研究生课程。那些完成课程要求的人将为在环境和农业咨询，大专水平的教学以及继续攻读博士学位的研究生做好充分准备。他们的研究和教学兴趣包括：环境胁迫下的植物生长，入侵物种，植物生理学，城市景观环境，受污染的土壤和水的生物修复以及现代和古代农业环境。所有重点均要求原创性研究主题，其结果以论文格式显示。预期该研究将具有最佳的出版质量和论文风格，从而能很好地反映专业期刊
Pursuit of the MS degree in environmental science provides students with research and education opportunities in environmental protection and remediation and in plant growth and physiology. Students will select graduate coursework in soil science, biology, and environmentally related courses taught in departments across the campus.<br><br>Those completing the program requirements will be well prepared for employment in environmental and agricultural consulting, teaching at the junior college level, and continued graduate studies for the Ph.D. Their research and teaching interests include: plant growth under environmental stress, invasive species, plant physiology, urban landscape environments, bioremediation of contaminated soils and water, and both modern and ancient agricultural environments. All emphases require original research topics with the results presented in thesis format. This research is expected to be of a publication quality and thesis style best reflecting that of a professional journal, thus facilitating timely submissions for publication. We also encourage formal presentations at professional meetings.
