Field Experience - Study in nearby urban, suburban and semi-rural environments, including the Blue Hills Reservation, a 7,000-acre reservation of forest and wetland.

Internships - Gain hands-on experience and understand the real-world application of your degree with potential internships at a nearby park or reservation, watershed association, wildlife foundation, or in the environmental arm of a government agency, private company or nonprofit.

State-Of-The-Art Science and Research Center - The 36,500 square foot Learning Commons features state-of-the-art science labs and the latest laboratory technology and data analysis equipment.
