Program details

Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science builds on existing knowledge of the subject. This team-based degree-completion programme brings together theory with practical laboratory and fieldwork skills. Courses cover communications, law, economics and environmental management, together with sustainable development and cross-training in the humanities, along with laboratory practice in chemistry, hydrology, ecotoxicology and ecology. Graduates are prepared for leadership roles in industry, government and environmental consulting.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 3.00 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: Standard admission requires six credits (two courses, one with a lab component) in chemistry, six credits in biology, six credits in math or physics including at least one course in linear algebra or calculus, and six credits in writing or communications, each at a minimum grade of 'B' (3.00/4.33); an overall minimum 'B' (3.00/4.33) GPA applies across a relevant diploma or transfer program. International credentials require evaluation, and official transcripts from every post-secondary institution attended are required. English-language proficiency defers to Royal Roads' general requirement for third-year entry and graduate programs: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (minimum 6.5 in writing and speaking, 6.0 in listening and reading) or TOEFL iBT 88 overall (minimum 24 writing, 20 in listening, reading and speaking).

Application Details

Application Deadline: Royal Roads University sets no single university-wide deadline: domestic and international applicants apply directly to the university through the same process, and every programme page checked shows one identical deadline for both. RRU consistently closes a programme's application exactly three calendar months before that programme's own intake start date — a September 2027 intake typically closes 7 June 2027 — though a few programmes (the Master of Global Management, for example) use a six-month lead instead. Each programme lists its own upcoming intakes, running from 2026 into 2028 depending on the programme, and RRU says it may still accept a late application if space and processing time remain, but it publishes no separate international deadline and no institution-wide equal-consideration or rolling policy. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
