LMU的环境科学专业帮助学生了解社会如何大量使用资源和废物管理做法，从而导致了本地和全球范围内对环境的各种关注。只有通过健全的多学科科学，我们才能了解环境干扰的原因和后果，然后确定消除或减少环境干扰的方法。环境科学专业为学生提供对生物学，化学，物理和数学的基础科学的严格理解，以及与环境研究，监测和技术数据的有效沟通相关的实践知识和技能。学生与环境专业人士一起工作的实习计划是该专业的关键组成部分。
LMU's Environmental Science major helps students understand how society's intense use of resources and waste management practices have resulted in a variety of environmental concerns on the local and global scales. Only through sound, multidisciplinary science can we understand the causes and ramifications of environmental disturbances, and then determine ways to eliminate or reduce them.<br><br>The Environmental Science major provides students with a rigorous understanding of the basic sciences of biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, as well as the practical knowledge and skills associated with environmental research, monitoring, and effective communication of technical data. Internship programs in which students work with environmental professionals are a key component of the major.<br><br>The major prepares students to attend graduate programs and work as environmental scientists in the private sector and with government agencies and public interest groups.
