The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences
Our mission is two fold:
To provide a broad background in the physical sciences, with a strong focus on geology and environmental sciences and its pivotal role in understanding our environment.
To prepare our graduates to enter graduate school for continuing education, or move into the workforce prepared to contribute as leaders addressing the many local and global issues facing society.
Our graduates are highly desired by industry and government employers for their laboratory skills and are well qualified for admission to graduate and professional schools. The courses and labs required for these degrees assure that graduates are proficient in the fundamental principles of chemistry and prepared to apply these principles to specialized areas such as environmental, forensic, medicinal, and pharmaceutical chemistry.
