环境科学理学硕士

随着21世纪的发展，人类活动对环境的影响在许多层面上都得到体现。尽管技术的进步以及我们对自然过程和人类行为的理解有潜力帮助解决环境问题，但迫切需要跨学科和相关机构整合思想。埃默里（Emory）环境科学理学硕士的核心是将生态和地球科学与政策和社会科学相结合。通过环境科学硕士课程的学生将通过论文课程工作，教师指导和必要的强化暑期研究机会获得重要的研究经验。与研究相结合，该计划将强调熟练的定量技能，学生将参加两个学期的环境统计序列。通过担任课程至少一个学期的助教，学生将获得教学经验。
As the 21st century unfolds, the environmental consequences of human activities are manifest on many levels. While technological advances and our understanding of natural processes and human behavior have the potential to help solve environmental problems, there is a great need to integrate ideas across academic disciplines and among relevant agencies. At its core, the Master of Science in Environmental Sciences at Emory seeks to integrate ecological and earth sciences with policy and social sciences. Students in the M.S. program in Environmental Sciences will gain significant research experience through thesis coursework, faculty mentoring and a required intensive summer research opportunity. In tandem with research, the program will emphasize proficiency in quantitative skills, students will engage in two semester sequence of environmental statistics. Students will gain teaching experience by serving as a Teaching Assistant for at least one semester of their program.
