Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Environmental Studies - Planning and GIS Concentration] From Stockton University

We stress a multidisciplinary approach that enables students to follow their interests and select elective courses in our or in other programs at Stockton. Each senior student completes a research project or works as an intern with an environmental organization to gain more practical experience and to integrate his or her academic work with a real world experience. Our courses emphasize fieldwork and other practical experiences. We encourage close work with our full-time faculty and we provide the latest technology to train students to step into an environmentally related career and help them achieve the goal of becoming professionals and lifelong learners.
