Looking Beyond Tomorrow, Into The Future

Our Core Mission: Students, Education, Stewardship!

Community College Mission: "To contribute to and inform our local community."

Formal and non-formal methods of teaching help students acquire the basics of this field. These include

• a scientific foundation
• understanding of social and economic concepts
• awareness of the behaviors that protect or damage the earth and its resources.

Students in Environmental Studies are trained for exciting career opportunities in some of the fastest growing fields in the country. Participants range from entry-level students to already trained professionals. Highly qualified faculty and experienced students make this a rich learning opportunity.
