What it is	Environmental Science combines the study of living systems and Earth's physical processes — like climate, water, and soil — to understand how natural environments work and respond to human activity. Unlike a program focused only on biology or only on geology, this degree integrates both to tackle real-world environmental problems. It suits students interested in conservation, resource management, or environmental consulting who want a broad scientific foundation rather than specialization in a single discipline.	This program combines humanities and social science courses with business and economics studies, letting you explore subjects like English, anthropology, creative writing, and French alongside business fundamentals. Unlike a straight business degree, you'll develop critical thinking and communication skills through arts coursework while learning business concepts. It suits students who want business knowledge but prefer a broader education and enjoy reading, writing, languages, or cultural studies.
