Program overview
Our program is known for producing environmentally conscious and responsible graduates with excellent communication skills and problem-solving abilities. You will be trained to meet the growing demands of interdisciplinary practitioners in the diverse fields of science and sustainability.
In addition to the core Environmental Sustainability courses, you will take courses in the following areas:
Biology
Environmental Chemistry
Environmental Economics
Geography
Geology
Natural Resource Management
We also offer a Co-Operative Education program if you are interested in gaining experience that surpasses typical fieldwork and research opportunities.
In addition to receiving an HBASc (Environmental Sustainability Major), you may choose to combine your degree with a specialization in Environmental Biotechnology, a Concurrent Education degree (Primary/Junior) or our Co-Operative Education program. Each of these options allows you to expand your knowledge and application of Environmental Sustainability and provides you with a competitive edge post-graduation. There are also college transfer pathways available.
Our department is relatively small and conducive to interaction with both your peers and professors. We encourage you to take advantage of the friendly, personal learning environment and reach out to faculty for course help as well as potential job and/or mentorship opportunities.
