The baccalaureate curriculum in Environmental Science prepares students
to apply science to the solution of environmental problems. A broad
exposure to
the sciences is required in order to prepare students for understanding
the nature and the solution to these problems. Although science is the
emphasis of this curriculum, students may select a limited number of
engineering oriented courses in order to develop design skills. Selection
of environmental elective courses should achieve a broad background
in aspects of air, water, noise, ionizing radiation, and soil pollution.
Graduates are qualified to fill positions in governmental agencies
dealing with environmental regulations and safety or positions requiring
environmental
controls in industry. Students in this program are not seeking the professional
engineering license.

The baccalaureate curriculum in Materials Science will provide graduates
with expertise in materials used in the manufacture of all products
used in our society.
These materials range from common ones that have been used for centuries
such as tin, bronze, copper and glass. More recently, people working
in the materials science area have developed substances such as polymers,
plastics, semiconductors, superconductors, memory metals, high-performance
specialized
alloys, ceramics, advanced composites and other materials that make
the field of materials science inherently multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary
and guarantee its
continued growth and vitality.
