Environmental Sciences and Engineering - Harvard University

Environmental Sciences and Engineering from Harvard University is a Campus Bachelor Enviroment degree that prepares you for a Science career. The Division offers a unique experience in undergraduate education in Environmental Sciences and Engineering for students interested in pursuing concentrations or taking electives in this area. Rigorous training is offered in computer modeling and mathematical, chemical, and biological analysis of natural systems, with cases drawn from aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environments. Many undergraduates participate in the aircraft and ground-based aspects of the atmospheric programs. Others take part in oceanographic missions and in a number of research projects in environmental chemistry and microbiology, environmental hydrology and hydraulics, and work as summer interns with local engineering firms and government agencies. As a student in Environmental Sciences and Engineering you can ... -Be part of a team doing ongoing research in atmospheric chemistry, physical oceanography, climatology, hydrology and water resources, and environmental microbiology. -Learn environmental engineering through computer modeling and mathematical analysis of natural systems, including aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environments. -Tackle global problems such as the effects of forest ecosystems on concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, ozone and other greenhouse gases, and the effects of global climatic changes on forests; the influences of energy consumption and industrial activity on concentrations of greenhouse gases; and the mechanics of the transport processes for heat and moisture in the global climate system. -Link your interest in environmental science to other fields, including Earth and Planetary Sciences or Public Policy. -Explore the Harvard Forest, a long-term ecological research site. -Access the Northeast Center for the National Institute of Global Environmental Change (hosted by Harvard). -Take a wide range of courses.
