Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science
环境科学理学学士学位借鉴了生物学课程， chemistry, Earth science, physics, and environmental engineering. Students must be 意识到环境问题的复杂性，却有严谨的背景 to address specific aspects of those problems. To ensure that graduates are competitive 在市场上为各种环境导向的职业，环境科学 students take classes in all of the disciplines listed above. They additionally select 生物学、化学、地质学、水文学或仪器仪表专业 measurements. Each option is sufficiently in‐depth to allow students to continue their 如果他们愿意的话，可以选择该学科的传统研究生课程. 由特定学科的教员组成的咨询委员会被召集起来 to help students plan their programs.
地球与环境科学系是天津大学的行政管理中心 the undergraduate environmental science degree. This page contains some general information provided by the admissions office. More detailed information is available in the New Mexico Tech Catalog, which can be found on page 149.
什么是环境科学学位，它与环境科学有何不同 engineering?
Tech的环境工程学位包括严格和专业的课程 哪些课程为毕业生解决环境相关工程问题做好了准备. 环境科学的目的是给你科学背景的灵活性 in a specific environmental area outside of engineering. The program will prepare you for jobs applying environmental knowledge to industrial applications. You could 还进入了新兴的环境监管领域，为卫生事业而努力 or environmental department on the local, state, or federal level.
与许多其他课程不同，我们的课程不包括调查课程来为你做准备 for public administration. This is a science degree: you will study physics, chemistry, 生物学，地质学和水文学，以获得对许多因素的全面了解 which affect environmental problems. Your degree will be a bachelor of science.
Why should I choose New Mexico Tech?
365彩票在线过滤在许多领域的研究方面有着悠久的卓越历史 the environment. 我们有教授研究酸雨，室内放射性， and formation of ozone during thunderstorms. Our hydrology program is considered one of the best in the world. One of their prime areas of research is understanding contaminated groundwater, in quest of better cleanup techniques. Our geology department is large 而且多样化，在课程和思想上都提供了很大的多样性 you’ll be exposed to. You’ll not only take your classes from the experts, but you’ll 也可以通过我们的教师的许多研究项目找到一些校园工作机会 conduct.
What options do I have within environmental science?
该课程提供五种选择:生物学、化学、地质学、水文学、 or instrumentation and measurements. You will have a broad range of courses which 概述环境问题，其中许多问题是相互重叠和相互联系的. 但是你要专注于你选择的课程，以便能够解决具体的问题 problems within your specialty.
What classes will I take for an environmental science degree?
像所有的理工科学生一样，你将学习基础化学、物理、微积分和计算机 science. 你还需要学习一些英语、社会研究和人文学科的课程 round out your education. As an environmental science major, you’ll also take courses 给大家一个严谨的背景知识:细胞生物学，有机化学， 生物化学、地质学、地下水水文学和环境工程. Then, you’ll take specialized courses within the option you’ve chosen:
- 生物学-植物学，动物学，分子生物学，遗传学，推荐课程 微生物学、生态学、环境毒理学、湖沼学和细菌生理学
- 化学——环境化学、物理化学、有机化学、仪器化学 方法，推荐生物化学，工业化学等课程 physical chemistry
- 水文学-地表水水文学，定量水文学，地球物理方法，地貌学， stratigraphy and sedimentation, structural geology, vector analysis
- 地质—环境地质学、矿物学、地貌学、光学矿物学、岩石学、 沉积岩石学，变质岩石学，地层学与沉积学，构造学 geology, field methods
- 仪器仪表和测量-电气工程，电路和信号，数字 电子学、微处理器、模拟电子学、化学、地质学、地球物理学、 physics, and computer science
What sorts of jobs will this degree qualify me for?
越来越多的行业需要环境科学家的帮助，以满足日益增长的需求 strict regulations. Furthermore, federal, state, and local regulatory agencies need experts to develop regulations, conduct tests, and assure compliance. Environmental 科学家也可能从事基础研究，确定某些污染物是如何影响的 the environment and what changes need to be made.
我应该在高中学习什么来为获得环境科学学位做准备?
除了获得扎实的英语和社会研究背景外，你还应该有计划 to take as many math and science courses as you can. At the very least, you should 学习代数、几何和三角，如果你的学校提供微积分或其他课程 advanced math, take that, too. Take at least two laboratory sciences, and preferably take biology, chemistry, and physics. Earth science is also important, if your school offers it. Round out your schedule with a foreign language.
