Environmental Science

Environmental Technology focuses on fundamental knowledge in ecology, aquatic ecosystems, geosciences and atmospheric sciences through hands-on field and laboratory work. That knowledge is used to apply technology to reduce our impact on human health and the environment.

Students in the Environmental Science & Technology career collaborate with environmental scientists and engineers, community and state officials, and other environmental organizations to investigate real world environmental issues.

Eligible seniors may complete internships with local environmental consulting companies, nonprofits, contractors, or laboratories. Most graduates of this program pursue further education at the college level; however, all are well equipped for careers immediately after high school graduation.
