Environmental Science is the application of a combination of scientific disciplines to issues and questions regarding environmental problems. Environmental Science at York includes a compulsory Research Design and Field Study course that gets you out using the equipment of the profession. This involves a long weekend at Algonquin Park at The Frost Centre working on a project. You'll learn to use water, soil and climate monitoring equipment and geographic information systems that can be put to use immediately and directly on the job with organizations like the Meteorological Service of Canada and Environment Canada.
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
