The environmental studies programs at Rutgers encourage students to consider important questions such as:
- Can bacteria gobble up environmental contaminants, thereby cleansing soil?
- How did a rise in atmospheric oxygen boost the evolution of mammals on earth?
- How do ice worms manage to survive in some of the harshest conditions on the planet?
- Why are ocean levels rising twice as fast today as they were 150 years ago?
Every day at
Rutgers, undergraduate students with a passion for the study of the environment
explore these questions and countless others while benefiting from:
- Direct involvement in research.
- Opportunities to collaborate with faculty in laboratories and in the field.
- A cooperative education program for students enrolled at the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences that allows you to earn academic credit and income while working in a position related to your major or career interests.
Both the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences (formerly Cook College) and the School of Arts and Sciences-Division of Life Sciences - offer a number of majors in the broad area of the biological, life, and environmental sciences.
- The School of Arts and Sciences offers majors that focus on the biological sciences and their application to biomedicine.
- The School of Environmental and Biological Sciences offers majors that focus on the biological sciences as applied to the natural world.
Advising is available to assist students with their selection of a major and career path.
