环境科学学士学位

环境科学领域向学生挑战，要求他们研究环境问题的生态和社会基础，以及在地方到全球范围内这些系统之间的复杂相互作用。埃默里大学环境科学系提供跨学科课程，将自然科学，社会科学和人文学科的课程结合在一起。由于环境问题超越了传统的学科界限，因此环境科学（ENVS）课程的结构和内容强调系统思维和综合学习。课堂活动以及实地和个人学习课程使学生能够参与现实世界的问题。该课程旨在通过挑战学生将理论和课堂学习转化为实践来提高批判性思维和解决问题的能力。强烈鼓励学生参加实习和/或研究，并在可能的情况下出国学习。
Environmental scientists work to solve many of our world's most pressing issues. As stewards of natural resources, they protect our water, help control pollution, clean up toxic waste, advise on land use and development, and engage in environmental law and policy decisions.<br><br>At Emory, youll study the ecological and social foundations of environmental issues. Our interdisciplinary curriculum lets you build both knowledge and practical, real-world skills, through field study, internships, research, and study abroad programs.<br><br>The ENVS Bachelor of Arts major allows students to build a solid foundation in the interdisciplinary field of environmental sciences, with elective flexibility to study topics in the department based on interest. Generally, we recommend the BA degree for students that have not yet determined which field of environmental science they want to pursue a career path in as it provides a broad overview of content and skills. The BA may also be a good fit for students doing double majors in the college who do not have room in their schedules to pursue the additional courses required of the BS.
