Pre-Applied Sciences

There are many fields of science beyond medicine and engineering where science-curious students may build a career: field biology, environmental science, laboratory science, urban ecology, consulting, conservation biology, science communications, land management, and more. An undergraduate degree with a focus on applied science also provides a strong foundation for further graduate study.

Any area of applied science requires a working knowledge of scientific research methods, using peer-reviewed literature to understand the context of existing science, and developing skills in: technical writing, laboratory techniques, data analysis and communication. In addition, you’ll complete three quarters of work-based co-operative education. Combining this science core with other areas of liberal arts at our advocacy-centered college makes our program unique.
