Notes:

  • Students combining the Environmental Science Major with a second BSc or BA Major, and who are also interested in obtaining a basic understanding of the social/political/policy aspects of environment, can add the Environmental Studies Minor. Some of the courses taken for the Environmental Science Major may be double counted for this Minor. Please contact the Undergraduate Student Advisor (see above) to learn more about this option.
  • Daniels Students enrolled in this program may be able to fulfil up to 1.5 credits in requirement 3 from ARC courses. Consult the School of the Environment for more information.
