Environmental Science and Resource Management

Environmental Science is the study of interactions among physical, chemical, and biological components of the environment. It is an interdisciplinary science overlapping the categories in Natural Sciences, Engineering Sciences and Social Sciences. In nature, Environmental Science focuses on pollution and degradation of the environment related to human activities and their impact on biodiversity and sustainability. As an interdisciplinary field, Environmental Science also applies knowledge from economics, law and social sciences. Environmental Science is a new program that is designed to be a preparatory path for students wishing to transfer in the same subject area to either the University of California, Santa Barbara or California State University, Channel Islands, both of which have four-year degrees in Environment Science.   Visit the ESRM website.
