New Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science Degree Program Launched at Trine University: Preparing Students for Career Opportunities in Environmental Fields

Trine University has announced the launch of a Bachelor of Science in environmental science degree program, which will be offered through its Rinker-Ross School of Health Sciences. The program aims to equip students with the necessary skills to understand and address the environmental challenges facing the planet.

The Bachelor of Science in environmental science will focus on examining and improving the health of the planet and its inhabitants, preparing graduates for careers in various fields related to the environment, law, health and safety, or public policy. Dean of the Rinker-Ross School of Health Sciences, Lexie Staten, emphasizes that the program is designed to provide students with hands-on fieldwork and research projects that will enable them to work in governmental agencies, non-profit organizations, or private companies as environmental or conservation scientists, environmental educators, lawyers, environmental policy analysts, or environmental health and safety specialists.

According to the Bureau of Labor Services, job growth in this field is expected to be above average over the next decade. This makes it a promising career path for graduates who are looking for employment opportunities. With Trine’s strong track record of offering programs that lead to employment opportunities for graduates – over 99% of Trine graduates have been employed or in graduate school within six months of commencement – this new degree program is set to continue that trend.
