The School of Environmental Studies offers an interdisciplinary Ph.D. program that will help you reach your career goals in the extensive fields of environmental science.
Our Ph.D. program endeavors to be more than a traditional "academic" program. The interdisciplinary faculty works with our graduate students to develop the critical thinking necessary to solve critical, real world problems.
The program offers five concentrations of study - Agriculture, Biology, Chemistry, Geosciences, and Integrated Research and also addresses environmental impacts on society and culture. Course work in agriculture, geology and sociology are included as core courses outside the selected concentration.
