When you choose environmental science
On the application — Lakehead spreads environmental science across several codes.
What to watch for
Lakehead has no single environmental science code. Environmental Management (AO, Thunder Bay, co-op) and Environmental Sustainability (AP, Orillia, co-op) are the dedicated degrees, both 70%; Biology (AD), Earth Science (AI) and Geography and the Environment (AU) each list Environmental Science as a stream. Water Science (AAR) and Forestry (AQ) are related. Lakehead has two campuses and many programmes run at only one: check the campus in the programme name before you apply, because Thunder Bay and Orillia are 1,400 km apart.
