To find out more about the Muckenhoupt award, please come to 14 Holmes Hall or visit the website.Our department offers undergraduate degree programs in Environmental Science, Environmental Studies, and Marine Studies for students interested in an earth-focused or interdisciplinary approach to finding solutions to environmental problems. We also offer graduate-level courses that support the Certificate in Geographic Information Systems in the School for Professional and Continuing Studies.
Northeastern's experiential learning requirement means that every student will participate in at least one significant activity (Co-op, research, internship, study abroad, etc.) that provides an opportunity to come face-to-face with authentic situations or real-world problems that are typically beyond the scope of what faculty can help you experience in traditional classroom teaching. We invite you to explore our website to learn more about the opportunities we offer.
