25 Environmental Biology BSc Degree Programs

Environmental biology is the broadest of ESF's six biology majors, covering topics from molecules to ecosystems to regional landscapes. Students can choose one of the specialized areas as an elective or minor.

Environmental Education and Interpretation (EE&I) are inspiring professionals who work to help their learners take actions on important issues in conservation, environmental and social justice, climate change, park management and access, and resource management.

Acquire knowledge in the many facets of ecology and conservation biology. Students receive a strong grounding in all aspects of biology before specializing in terrestrial or marine ecology.

Conservation biology is growing rapidly and ever-increasing in importance in response to the biodiversity crisis. This diversity spans the biological hierarchy and includes variation at the level of genes, populations, communities, ecosystems, and biomes.

The forest health major prepares biology-oriented students that deal with maintaining the health of forest resources. The major is distinct from those in the Department of Forest and Natural Resources Management and its forest ecosystem science, which provides skills in forest management.

Our BSc Ecology and Environmental Biology course explores the diversity of the living world, across levels of biological organisation, from genes to individuals, their populations, and the communities they form, up to entire ecosystems.

The Environmental Biology bachelor’s program offers a broad overview of ecological systems, environmental processes, and the relationships between humans and the environment. It emphasizes understandi...

The Environmental Biology major is designed for students who want to help solve the environmental problems threatening the organisms and life support systems of our planet.

The Bachelor in Applied Biology with a focus on Environmental Biology offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to equip students with a strong foundation in biological sciences, emphasizing the appl...

The Environmental Biology major is designed for students who want to help solve the environmental problems threatening the organisms and life support systems of our planet. Students are able to specialize by selecting most of their upper-division courses from one of two emphases: 1) Ecology, Conservation, and Biodiversity and 2) Environmental Microbiology and Biotechnology.

Our Environmental Biology and Technology (ENBT) program specializes in providing you with the knowledge and skills required to study Environmental Biology from many perspectives. You will receive the double-benefit of combining the academic education provided by Nipissing University with the practical and technical skills taught by our colleagues at Canadore College. All courses are completed within four years, and you will emerge with both a university degree and a college diploma. As well, there are a number of special certificates that ENBT students can earn.

The interdisciplinary minor in environmental studies provides students with an opportunity to explore the environmental, economic and social dimensions of sustainability from the perspectives offered by course work in natural sciences, physical sciences, social sciences, humanities and business. As an outcome of this exploration, students will recognize and address environmental issues in the personal, civic and professional areas of their lives.

Environmental Science provides a strong but diverse scientific foundation required to understand environmental issues from a multi-disciplinary perspective. Environmental Science is an ideal discipline if you have both a strong interest in science and a concern for the environment. This interdisciplinary program is science intensive and provides you with the foundation necessary to understand environmental issues from many different perspectives.

"Biology, Biotechnology Emphasis, B.S." refers to a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a specialization in Biotechnology. This degree program focuses on the application of biological principles and techniques to various fields such as medicine, agriculture, and industry. Students in this program learn about genetic engineering, molecular biology, bioinformatics, bioprocessing, and other biotechnology-related topics.

This program emphasizes the application of natural and geospatial sciences while solving problems in environmental management. Graduates go on to careers in fields such as watershed and forest management, environmental restoration and conservation science, geographic information system (GIS) analysis, and sustainable energy management and design.
