Environmental Biology is a concentration within the biology BS. It prepares students for the workforce or graduate study in ecology, whole-organism biology and environmental work.
Required courses include microbial ecology, zoology, botany-related courses on plants and fungi, plant physiology, geology and an introduction to geographic information systems. An internship is required.
Careers exist in law, government, industry and universities with an environmental focus, as environmental concerns continue to grow. The requirements of the concentration follow those of the general Biology degree, with additional prescribed courses chosen to prepare students for fieldwork. The Department of Biological Sciences administers the program and answers questions about the degree plan. The program is based at the Main Campus of Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan. Students interested in this path should expect field-oriented study and plan their internship early with the department.
