Environmental policy students combine an understanding of environmental problems with knowledge of human needs, history, politics and economics to derive practical solutions to environmental issues. They engage in an interdisciplinary study of humankind’s impact on nature. Those in the field may study policy on polluted areas, advise environmental officials and promote waste reduction in the industry. Students can custom design their degree plan based on their area of strength such as field ecology, plant diversity, environmental anthropology, hazardous substances, constitutional law or environmental issues in developing nations.
