Bachelor of Science in Earth and Environmental Sciences

When you enroll in UNO’s Bachelor of Science in earth and environmental sciences program, you’ll deepen and expand your understanding of the past, present, and possible future of our planet and the environmental factors that shape it. Once you complete your degree, you’ll be prepared to enroll in the top graduate schools across the nation, or to find employment in the oil and gas industry, a state or federal science agency, or a private environmental firm.

Earth and Environmental Sciences Concentrations

EES is a broad field, with plenty of branches you can explore as you shape your career path. That’s why UNO offers two concentrations within the Bachelor of Science in earth and environmental sciences degree, so your degree will be as closely related to your future career as possible. You can choose to focus your studies in either of these concentrations, supplementing the standard degree curriculum with tailored coursework to prepare you for success in either field. Both concentrations are 120-credit-hour programs, including 16 required credits in the concentration of your choice.
