Students who seek to expand their career opportunities can build upon their bachelor’s degrees by completing a master program within the same field. Through one to three years of specialized coursework and research, they advance their knowledge and may become qualified experts.

What is a Master in Environmental Studies? This program, typically defined as a Master of Science, offers a high-level interdisciplinary study of major environmental issues that society currently faces. Potential coursework may involve biology, geology, economics, political science and more, fitting the multi-faceted challenges presented, and this is combined with fieldwork, research and a thesis paper. Students may be able to adjust their curriculum for specializations such as environmental planning, wetlands management, sustainable agriculture and more.

A Master in Environmental Studies provides an opportunity to acquire transferable career skills. Commonly, students gain competency in planning, analysis and developing arguments across multiple work environments. Many careers also benefit from the interdisciplinary perspective developed in this field.

This master program, and the duration and associated costs, can vary considerably between schools and students. Typically, expect about two years of course, lab and thesis work. To learn more, research the program on the university’s site or contact the appropriate admission office.
