Hawaii
Pacific Univesity - Environmental Science (環境科学）
The environmental science major prepares
students for advanced studies or careers in the private and
public sectors as environmental scientists. Students selecting
this major take a rigorous series of lower-division courses
in chemistry, physics, biology, earth system science, and
mathematics as a foundation for advanced courses in environmental
science. Students select upper-division courses from one of
three options within the major -- the biology concentration,
chemistry concentration, or the general concentration. This
provides breadth of perspective for examining environmental
issues, as well as significant depth in a traditional scientific
discipline.
Environmental science majors also receive professional HAZWOP
and HAZCOM certificate training to enable a full range of
field-based practicum, internship, and career experiences
with environmental science companies or institutions.
Upper-division coursework in communication, environmental
law and policy, regulatory compliance, and environmental ethics
provide additional understanding, skills, and perspective
for approaching environmental issues.
Program
Objectives
Environmental Science Knowledge Base: A thorough understanding
of the factual base, processes and relationship that constitute
a working foundation in the environmental sciences.
The Human Dimension: An understanding of the social, economic,
political and legal framework in which environmental issues are
enmeshed.
Critical Analysis and Problem Solving Skills: Develop the ability
to critically analyze and formulate possible solutions to complex
environmental issues that includes consideration of social, economic,
and political as well as scientific issues.
Communication Skills: The ability to access, comprehend, and
communicate information to and from the many audiences required
by a practitioner in field of environmental science.
Technical Skills: Develop a working knowledge of techniques
used to gather and analyze information in environmental studies,
including project design, sampling, measurement, geographic image
interpretation, hazardous materials concerns, statistical and
graphical analysis, and other computational skills.
Ethical Perspective Develop the ability to understand divergent
ethical views of environmental issues, and to distinguish them
from scientific or legal viewpoints. Graduates of the program
through the attainment of the above objectives should develop
their own environmental ethic and be able to articulate it to
others.
Environmental Science Knowledge Base: A thorough understanding
of the factual base, processes and relationship that constitute
a working foundation in the environmental sciences.
Post-Graduate Experience: Graduates of this program are well
prepared for graduate studies in a related discipline or for entry-level
positions in the discipline.
