2,892 Environmental and Earth Sciences Degree Programs

Our planet is faced with many challenging problems and we need problem solvers. The Environmental Science for Sustainability, Ecosystems and Technology programme (ESSET) will transform you into an ambitious environmental professional with a BSc degree.

The MSc in Environmental Science and Technology will train a new generation of professionals to provide sustainable solutions for increasingly complex environmental problems. You will learn to create a healthier living environment for all, whilst avoiding pollution, preserving our ecosystems, and sustainably using and recovering resources.

The aim of this programme is to train environmental engineers with up-to-date knowledge in natural sciences, earth sciences and engineering, economics and management. One specialisation focuses on identifying and evaluating potential environmental hazards, preventing or reducing their impact and managing damage control projects.

Do you have a love for the environment? Do you wonder how the world works? Are you interested in the impact humans are having on the planet? If so, a major in Earth and Environmental Sciences could be right for you! Earth and Environmental Sciences provides an overview of how science affects our environment, focusing on interactions between the solid Earth, its water, its air, and its living organisms, and on dynamic, interdependent relationships between these four components.

To promote advanced formation, multi and interdisciplinary in scientific areas related to PhD in Environmental, Marine and Earth Sciences. Development of skills and scientific training at the highest level, including scientific analysis, innovation, critical thinking, decision-making and independent research work

The most pressing problems of the 21st century include environmental degradation such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, soil degradation, and air pollution, and increasing resource scarcity urging for a more sustainable use of Earth’s resources. The BSc program Earth Sciences and Sustainable Management of Environmental Resources (ESSMER) is an interdisciplinary science major with a strong focus on phenomena and processes occurring at the Earth’s surface. Our students develop a holistic understanding of the system Earth, anthropogenic interaction with its land, atmosphere, oceans and biosphere, and management of environmental resources, including water, soils, biological and energy resources, and minerals. The ESSMER program is based on a solid foundation in science disciplines and uses key methodological tools and concepts from Earth Sciences and data management combined with the concepts of sustainability and resource management.

The Bachelor's in Earth Sciences with an Environmental Science Concentration (B.A.) prepares students to understand the complex interactions within Earth's systems and address environmental challenges...

The "Doctorate in Earth and Planetary Sciences" aims to offer young graduates the opportunity to pursue a third-level, internationally recognized program, connecting the best expertise of the University of Florence with that of some of Italy's leading Earth Sciences research institutions (the Institute of Geosciences and Earth Resources and the Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment of the National Research Council, the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, etc.).

While the global challenges with respect to the environment and sustainability are huge and can only be addressed in an interdisciplinary approach, they also call for specialization. The Energy and Environmental Sciences (EES) Program provides a series of introductory courses that give a general overview of the problem-field, and then allows for specialization towards any of a broad range of subjects within energy or sustainability, treating it from a natural science perspective. However, it trains the students that the natural sciences/technical approach to and solution of problems is only a part of the story and collaboration with other scientific disciplines is vital.

The Department of Earth, Environmental, and Geographical Sciences offers a Master of Science in Earth Sciences degree with opportunities for study and research in the areas of geology, hydrology, atmospheric science, surface processes, environmental science, remote sensing, and geospatial analysis. Graduate students have access to faculty with a broad range of expertise, as well as access to extensive field, laboratory, and computing facilities.

Global socio-ecological problems call for multidisciplinary solutions that transcend the usual boundaries of science and decision-making. In the Master's Programme in Environmental Change and Global Sustainability (ECGS), you are trained to tackle global environmental and sustainability challenges by lectures, seminars, project learning and laboratory and field courses.

The International PhD Program in Agricultural and Environmental Sciences of the Department of Agriculture, Food, Environment and Forestry (DAGRI) combines expertise from many disciplines in the agro-environmental field aimed at training researchers, enabling them to carry out qualified scientific activities in the field of plant and animal production, considering also aspects of eco-sustainability, climate change and recovery of polluted and degraded areas in order to restore their agricultural cultivation capabilities.

Develop a unique set of skills to tackle climate and environmental issues facing industry and policy makers today If you are deeply concerned about climate change and our environment, and fascinated by how we affect the landscape and how the landscape affects us, this specialist environmental geography programme could be perfect for you.

The MSc/MPhil in Environmental and Energy Sciences promotes research excellence and educates students on the scientific frontiers and advanced methodologies at the vanguard of interconnected issues related to Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences, Water Sciences, Energy and Sustainability.

The B.Sc. Agricultural and Environmental Sciences is offered on McGill University's Macdonald Campus. Students can also explore courses and other opportunities on the Downtown Campus, and pursue field courses and research activities locally and around the world, including field study semesters in Panama, Barbados, and Africa. Students can customize their learning experience by picking one of five different majors (Major in Agricultural Economics, Major in Environmental Biology, Major in Environment, Major in Life Sciences, Major in Sustainable Agricultural Systems) along with multiple specializations, concentrations, and/or minors.    

Two tracks: General and Earth Science Education. The EES track prepares students to work at any of the many Geotechnical/Environmental companies in Hawai‘i, elsewhere in the US, or abroad. The ESE track, along with the College of Education’s (CoE) Post-Baccalaureate program, prepares students to teach Earth Science at Middle School or High School.

At the University of New Mexico, the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences is dedicated to understanding how our dynamic planet works — from the movement of tectonic plates to the cycling of water, carbon, and energy through the Earth system.

The Master's Programme in Environmental Science and Sustainability aims to develop your competence in working with environmental issues. You will study environmental issues from a scientific perspective - analysing causes, relationships and possible solutions to environmental problems. Sustainable development is a core theme within the programme, which will help you prepare for your future career, whether you aim to work at a government agency or in the private sector.
