环境生物学理学学士学位课程的基础是必修课程的核心，提供一般教育，生物学和物理科学原理的背景以及对自然资源和其他环境问题的关注。在这个共同的基础上，大量的选修学分使每位学生都能在一位受聘的顾问的帮助下制定出独特的学习计划，该顾问是该学生一般兴趣领域的专家。为了与我们课程的实际操作相一致，学生还必须完成六个学分的现场经验。环境生物学是ESF七个生物学专业中最广泛的学科，涵盖从分子到生态系统再到区域性景观的主题，但几乎所有专业领域的课程都可以选修。存在足够的选修空间，可以在四年制课程中完成未成年人的学习。在选择
The curriculum for the bachelor of science degree in environmental biology is built around a core of required courses that provides a general education, a background in the principles of biological and physical science, and an orientation to natural resources and other environmental concerns. From this common foundation, the large number of elective credits allows each student to develop a unique plan of study, with the help of an assigned advisor who is expert in the student's general area of interest. In keeping with the hands-on, field orientation of our curriculum, students also must complete six credit hours of field experience . Environmental biology is the broadest of the seven biology majors at ESF, covering topics from molecules to ecosystems to regional landscapes, but nearly all the courses in the specialized areas are also available as electives. Sufficient elective space exists to allow completion of a minor during the four-year program. In choosing electives, some students sample from the widest spectrum of classes in environmental biology, this is common for those wishing to enter graduate school for further, career-oriented education. Other students focus their electives to some extent, depending on their interests and their educational and career goals.
