Description
The environmental sustainability, health and safety major will prepare you to become an effective champion in making organizations and companies more sustainable and less polluting, all while keeping employees safer at work. It encompasses the policies, laws, rules, regulations, careers, and efforts utilized by universities, school districts, local governments, companies, and environmental consulting groups to protect the health and safety of their employees and to ensure their activities do not harm the environment. Environmental sustainability, health and safety is a dynamic degree with two robust areas of study. Environmental sustainability teaches you how to help organizations identify, implement, and champion efforts to make their products, processes, and industries cleaner and more environmentally friendly; and occupational health and safety prepares you to protect workers from hazards, accidents, illness, and harm while working in plants, product warehouses, and manufacturing facilities. By using professional electives you can tailor your course work around the topics and career paths that interest you most. The degree also offers three options–sustainability, risk and resilience; safety and risk systems; and surveying and geospatial analysis–for you to further develop your understanding and expertise in a specialized area of study.
