What it is	Environmental Geoscience is a program that combines the study of Earth's physical systems — rocks, minerals, water, atmosphere — with environmental problem-solving. It differs from pure geology by focusing specifically on how natural processes interact with human activities and environmental challenges. This program suits students interested in understanding natural systems and applying that knowledge to issues like contamination, resource management, and climate impacts.	This is a science degree focusing on chemistry, computer science, mathematics, or physics, studied at a military college where your academic training is combined with military officer development and physical training. Unlike a civilian science program, you're committed to becoming a Canadian Armed Forces officer after graduation, which shapes your entire experience. It suits people who want advanced science training alongside leadership development and military service.	You study how Earth's climate and environment work, using chemistry, physics, and geography to understand weather systems, ecosystems, and human impacts. This program combines natural science with social geography, so you examine both the physical causes of environmental change and how people and communities respond to it. It suits students curious about climate science who want hands-on experience through co-op placements alongside their coursework.
