环境科学与政策理学硕士

该硕士课程满足了对受过训练的环境专业人员的日益增长的需求，这些专业人员可以解决土地和水管理，土地利用和城市化，湿地流失，微生物生态，生物修复，保护生物学和生态系统保护等问题。这些专业人员还将为全球问题的分析和解决做出贡献，例如森林砍伐，世界粮食供应不足，酸沉积，人口增长和公共卫生，全球气候变化/变暖以及平流层臭氧消耗。部门重点关注的领域包括生态系统，保护，环境生物复杂性，分子生态学，可持续性科学，环境政策和管理以及人与环境的相互作用。环境问题是在现实世界中定义的，不一定符合传统的学术学科。因此，解决方案需
This master's program meets the increasing need for trained environmental professionals who can address the problems of land and water management, land use and urbanization, wetland loss, microbial ecology, bioremediation, conservation biology, and ecosystem preservation. These professionals will also contribute to the analysis and resolution of global problems, such as deforestation, insufficient world food supplies, acid deposition, population growth and public health, global climate change/warming, and depletion of the stratospheric ozone. Areas of specific departmental focus include ecosystems, conservation, environmental biocomplexity, molecular ecology, sustainability science, environmental policy and management, and human/environmental interactions.Environmental problems are defined in the real world and do not necessarily conform to traditional academic disciplines. As such, solutions require creative combinations of diverse interests and subjects. Effective training requires rigorous, problem-focused interdisciplinary action in a setting in which research is an essential element supporting instruction.
