The Master of Science in Environmental Science and Policy is a springboard to leadership for environmental professionals. The program gives students a powerful understanding of where the sciences overlap and inform policy while providing insight into how policy is implemented and affects environmental outcomes.

Our 30-unit program in MS in Environmental Management offers a rigorous yet flexible mix of courses that integrate environmental science and engineering with policy and management knowledge. MSEM includes the option for a concentration in Ecology, Water Management, Environmental Health & Hazards, or Energy and Climate, as well as the option for a GIS certificate.

Environmental science is more important today than ever before. American University's Master of Science in Environmental Science gives students the knowledge and leadership skills to confront pressing environmental challenges facing the world, from climate change to renewable energy to food and water security. The program will prepare you for careers in science, research, environmental policy, and advocacy. With advanced coursework in climate modeling, geochemistry, conservation, and statistics necessary to inform science-based policy, the program prepares students to engage in high-level environmental problem-solving and to develop innovative solutions to critically important environmental issues.

Employers across the public and private sectors are increasingly seeking scientists who specialize in creative ideas with minimal environmental impact. In our unique green chemistry program, students learn the science underlying today’s environmental challenges and develop innovative, greener solutions to address them.

Today's environmental challenges require professionals who understand the scientific foundations of problems and can navigate the policy-making process. Our program immerses students in both worlds and teaches you how to facilitate the solutions. The MS in Environmental Science and Policy is an integrated curriculum of science, policy and law, communication skills, and professional advocacy that will make you an effective agent of change in the public, private, or non-profit sectors.

SFA’s Master of Science in Environmental Science program offers a unique curriculum that combines coursework from environmental science, spatial science, geology, biology, forestry, agriculture, mathematics and chemistry. The result is an interdisciplinary graduate program that prepares students for a wide range of high-paying, fast-growing careers in a wide range of settings, from private industry and consulting to government, education and research.  

Drawing knowledge from natural and social sciences, humanities, engineering, and more, the MS in Energy & Environment unlocks the door to a career that leaves a mark on the world. Our graduates shape environmental policy and planning, excel at energy analysis and environmental consulting, and expand the reach of nongovernmental organizations.

Our two-year Master of Science in Environmental Science program (MSES) will prepare you to find solutions to complex challenges in areas you’re passionate about. Deepen your science training and supplement it with an understanding of policy and law to understand how solutions can be implemented. Whether you want to advocate for renewable energy, support sustainable water resources, or find ways to mitigate the impact of global climate change, you’ll find what you’re looking for here. Throughout the program, you’ll benefit from the support of faculty who are all top research scientists and scholars in their field. They’re also dedicated educators, advisors, and mentors, ready to use their expertise to help you realize your goals.

When you combine scientific knowledge with passion for policy and progress, you can become a change agent in organizations dedicated to safeguarding our environment.

We offer PhD and MS degrees in 6 programs: Atmospheric Sciences, Marine Biology & Ecology, Environmental Science & Policy, Marine Geosciences, Meteorology & Physical Oceanography, and Ocean Sciences. We offer highly competitive stipend rates, tuition, and health insurance coverage for our incoming PhD students as part of a fully-funded 5-year Graduate Assistantship. Finally, as part of our revitalized connections across colleges and to take advantage of our unique research facilities, we offer an MS degree in both Ocean Engineering and Sustainable Business. Our graduate students also take advantage of nearby NOAA facilities including the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, Southeast Fisheries Science Center, and the National Hurricane Center. PhD Assistantships can be found here: https://graduate.earth.miami.edu/admissions/phd-assistanships/index.html GRE not required!

The Master of Professional Science (MPS) is an accelerated, graduate degree intended for students who want to generate innovative solutions to the marine, coastal, and climate-related issues (take same courses as PhD and Master of Science / MS students, but instead of research with a faculty member, students do research and projects in the field). Students enrolled in this program are exposed to a unique, multidisciplinary curriculum, including science theory, field and laboratory training, legal and regulatory knowledge, communication and media training, and the development of project management skills, designed to prepare them to address environmental challenges as future global leaders. GRE not required!

The multidisciplinary approach taken in this program produces skilled professionals who are able to tackle the biggest problems plaguing our environment using a holistic approach.

Our Master of Science in Environmental Studies addresses areas of environmental policy, natural resource science and management, and sustainable development. Students may select a concentration in the regional geology of South Florida, the Caribbean or Latin America; the program emphasizes the cultural and political contexts of environmental issues in the region.
