Study of the Environment

The study of the environment includes the physical nature of the planet as well as plant and animal interactions involving other living organisms, space, land, and water. The Departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Environmental and Plant Biology, Geography, and Geological Sciences offer programs for preparation in the study of the environment. These programs allow you to develop a fundamental knowledge of the nature of basic environmental parameters; a sense of the complex interactions of living organisms, including humans, on those parameters; and a basis for approaching solutions to problems resulting from this impact. To major in the study of the environment at Ohio University, choose a discipline for intensive investigation (biological sciences, chemistry, environmental and plant biology, geography, geological sciences) and, in consultation with an advisor in that department, develop a program to meet your goals.

The following degree programs are offered:

  1. Preparation for Environmental Biology (Biological Sciences Emphasis)

  2. Preparation for Environmental Biology (Plant Biology Emphasis)

  3. Preparation for Environmental Chemistry

  4. Preparation for Environmental Geography

  5. Preparation for Environmental Geology

In addition, the Department of Geography offers an environmental prelaw major.

For the specific requirements of each program, refer to the respective department's listing in this section of the catalog.

The College of Arts and Sciences sponsors the undergraduate Environmental Studies Certificate Program for students who are interested in environmental studies but do not wish to major in the field. The program is available to students in any major within the University. See the Environmental Studies Certificate Program listing in this section for requirements.


Environmental and Plant Biology

For students interested in careers in plant biology, plant pathology, biotechnology, environmental biology, natural resources, conservation, field biology, agronomy, plant breeding, freshwater and marine biology, or cell biology, the Department of Environmental and Plant Biology offers major programs in plant biology, environmental biology, field biology, and cell biology and biotechnology.

Plant Biology Major (B.A. or B.S.)
Major codes BA2111, BS2111

The B.A. degree in plant biology is designed for students interested in the plant sciences who desire a broad liberal education. The flexibility in this program allows for either a minor or second major in another discipline such as economics, business administration, computer science, anthropology, sociology, geography, geological sciences, or biological sciences. If you plan to do graduate studies in plant biology or a related biological science, consult a departmental advisor for assistance in selecting a program to prepare you for an advanced degree.

Plant Biology-Environmental Biology Major (B.S.)
Special curriculum; major code BS2113

This preprofessional program gives you a broad base for developing a career in environmental sciences, conservation, natural resources, forestry, environmental quality control, or ecology. Because a graduate degree may be required for entry into some positions, training beyond the bachelor's degree is strongly recommended. See also the environmental degree programs listed under the Departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Geography, and Geological Sciences.

Plant Biology-Field Biology Major (B.S.)
Special curriculum; major code BS2115

The program in field biology is appropriate for students who are interested in jobs in conservation and other areas of field biology that do not require graduate training. Students who plan on pursuing a graduate degree in biology will have to acquire additional background in physics, math, and chemistry, and will, therefore, generally be better off majoring in environmental biology (BS2113) or plant biology (BS2111). Students majoring in field biology should consider earning an Environmental Studies Certificate at the same time.

Environmental Studies Certificate Program

The field of environmental studies encompasses the complex interactions between humans, other organisms, and the biophysical environment. The Environmental Studies Certificate Program is open to students in any major program within the University who want to gain knowledge and understanding about the interdisciplinary field of environmental studies. Completion of this program, which is the equivalent of a minor, results in the awarding of a certificate and is officially recognized on your transcript upon graduation.

You can earn a certificate in environmental studies by completing 32-35 hours of approved coursework selected from the courses outlined below. Many certificate courses satisfy both Tier and Arts and Sciences requirements. Further, courses taken as part of an Arts and Sciences major will also count toward fulfilling the certificate. Be advised that some courses require prerequisites, and plan accordingly. Student should take no more than three courses from any one department.
