The Creighton Environmental Science major is designed to produce well-rounded scientists with both the necessary background and the problem solving skills necessary to enter graduate degree programs or gain employment in diverse environmental careers. Environmental scientists pursue careers in conservation, environmental impact assessment, limnology, air-sea interactions, inadvertent climate modification, and atmospheric and landscape remote sensing. Graduates are prepared for work in government agencies, environmental consulting firms, and businesses concerned with environmental affairs. Pre-professional students also pursue graduate study in law, planning, public policy, or environmental health and medicine.
