Overview
Environmental programs study how natural systems work and how human activity changes them. The grouping covers environmental science, environmental studies, climate and sustainability, drawing on ecology, earth science, economics and policy to understand pollution, biodiversity loss and climate change.
Master's programs range from science-based degrees with fieldwork to interdisciplinary degrees in sustainability management and policy. A PhD leads to research on environmental systems and solutions in universities, research institutes and international agencies.
Graduates work as environmental consultants, sustainability managers, climate policy analysts, conservation scientists and environmental compliance specialists. Corporate sustainability reporting, climate risk and clean energy have opened roles in business and finance alongside government and nonprofit work.
Most Environment, Climate & Sustainability programs charge between $21,000 and $59,000 a year in tuition. The top ten ranked programs charge between $40,000 and $87,000.
