在项目实施之前评估项目对环境的影响是合理决策的重要组成部分。客观评估必须确定与提案相关的所有环境风险，并提供解决方案以减轻这些担忧。我们需要学者获得有关联邦环境法律和政策的基础知识，以便他们可以在开展前瞻性计划或方案之前有效地开展影响研究。受益于为期四个月的实习，您将在环境评估相关领域的专业监督下工作。潜在的安置地点包括各级政府，国际机构，非政府组织和私营公司。通过一系列简历撰写和面试研讨会，以及项目管理基本概念的介绍，您还将有机会提高自己的软技能。
The MEnv in Environmental Assessment gives you a comprehensive background in scoping, data collection and analysis, and Geographical Information Systems (GIS). You will explore all aspects and methodologies of the environmental assessment process as you effectively analyze technical reports and oversee complex projects. Objective assessments must identify all environmental risks associated with a proposal and offer solutions to mitigate those concerns. You will benefit from a four-month internship where you will work under professional supervision in a field related to environmental assessment. Potential placement after graduation includes all levels of government, international agencies, non-governmental organizations and private corporations. Now more than ever, we need specialists in federal environmental laws and policies to effectively develop impact studies before plans or programs are carried out.
