BA/BS in Environmental Biology

The Environmental Biology program at the University of Regina leads to a Bachelor of Science, with an honours option, and has an overall length of four years, delivered jointly with Saskatchewan Polytechnic, Lethbridge Polytechnic, and Lakeland College through the Faculty of Science alongside the university's federated colleges, including Campion College. Students typically complete a two-year diploma in a related field, such as integrated resource management, renewable resource management, or wildlife and fisheries conservation, before completing a further two years toward the degree at the University of Regina, though a route starting with one year at the university before transferring for the diploma is also available. Coursework explores contemporary environmental issues, including ecological and biological modelling, wildlife and fish biology, plant and animal physiology, limnology, and biogeochemistry. Graduates pursue roles such as biogeographer, ecologist, environmental-impact assessor, and science-policy analyst with public and private agencies, including provincial government departments and conservation organizations.
