| 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 program combines environmental science, geography, and business thinking to explore how people use and sustain natural resources. Unlike a pure environmental science degree, it emphasizes the economic and entrepreneurial side of solving environmental problems, and includes mandatory work terms where you apply what you learn in real jobs. It suits people who care about the environment but want practical business and policy skills alongside scientific understanding. | This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus. |
