Description
This exciting and timely field of study prepares students for careers with private, state or federal agencies in a multitude of careers in wildlife ecology and conservation, climate science, restoration ecology, natural resource management, park and forest rangers, land and nature preservation, and environmental ethics and activism. Those interested in sustainability have many options as jobs in this sector continue to grow such as sustainability officers, health and safety inspectors, environmental law and policy advocates, as well as jobs focused on alternative energy, sustainable food systems, and waste reduction (especially plastics in our oceans).
