Students are encouraged to seek full-time internship training during the summer months. Many graduates in environmental science will find employment in environmental consulting, analytical laboratories, and governmental agencies. Most environmental science majors will continue their education in graduate school. Those with M.S. and Ph. D. degrees will fill leadership positions in environmental consulting, governmental agencies and universities. The Agronomy and Horticulture Club develops professionalism and fellowship among students.
Membership is open to all students and faculty.
The Agronomy and Horticulture Department offers approximately 15 scholarships and awards to students each year. Scholarships are also offered by the College of Biology and Agriculture and academic scholarships are offered by the university. Some of our students work on campus 20 hours a week. Students in their senior year may work as teaching assistants when those opportunities are available.
