Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Environmental Science] From Wheaton College Illinois

It is a problem based discipline that draws on a broad understanding of biology, geology, chemistry, physics and mathematics. Beyond studying the physical environment it is critical that environmental scientists understand the cultural and social contexts that drive environmental challenges. All this must be integrated under a strong biblical environmental ethic to comprehensively care for God's environment, entrusted to us.

Our mission is to equip students and faculty to embrace the obligations and appreciate the privileges of being stewards of God?s creation. Through acts of scholarship and service, students and faculty protect environmental systems, inform the global church, and influence society and culture.

The environmental science curriculum, consisting of core and elective courses, prepares all students to address environmental problems integrating knowledge from across the natural and social sciences. In addition, students acquire specific environmental skills such as environmental research design, statistics, computer mapping and information systems, and pollution assessment. All of this is done within the context of a Christian environmental ethic in which students develop their personal and professional identity as stewards of Creation.?
