Tulane University - Environmental Science / Environmental Studies Program

The Departments of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology (EEB) and Earth & Environmental Sciences (EES) collaborate to offer this interdisciplinary environmental science major, which provides students with broad exposure to environmental problems, as well as training in essential problem-solving skills, such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Environmental Informatics (EI). The major is not unlike the majors in EES and EEB in that it requires a broad background in the natural sciences and a core curriculum that familiarizes students with scientific tools and methods. The undergraduate program is preparatory to our 4+1 M.S. degree program in environmental science.
