Water is one of the most important substances on Earth. It is essential to many of the things we need and enjoy in life: food, transport, and recreation, but managing it can also pose some serious challenges. Around the world, water managers contend with droughts, floods, sea-level rise, overfishing, pollution, plastic soup, and many other risks to both our natural environment and our society. We need water managers to safeguard our future!

The Bachelor of Science in Environmental Geography is a subfield in geography that explores human-environment interactions. The B.S. in Environmental Geography provides students with the opportunity to study how humans impact, manage, and conserve the natural environment, including landforms, water and soil resources, climate, and plant and animal communities. Courses in the program focus on understanding processes and patterns in the natural environment, as well as quantitative analysis and applied, hands-on experiences in the classroom and in the field.

NNU's Wildlife Biology and Ecology (Bachelor of Science) degree offers students specific knowledge and skills that will prepare them to conduct scientific research in the fields of biodiversity conservation, wildlife management, or other ecological specialties or to pursue graduate school.

We all enjoy the sun on our faces, the dirt under our feet, and the air we breathe. But our environment is fragile. And it needs someone like you to protect it. We’re at a turning point for our planet, and it’s not just global warming. Our oceans, forests, and wildlife are all a delicate balance, and right now, they’re at risk. It’s not just about science (although science is a big part). To tackle this problem, you’ll need to become an economist, sociologist, and psychologist. And a fighter.

(Understanding the oceans) studies different ecosystems for aquatic organisms in the oceans, rivers and lakes of the world, including chemical analysis of water composition and the impacts of waves and water flows.

All COA students study human ecology, the investigation of the relations between humans and their environments.
