ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES VS. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE

Environmental Studies - С»ÆƬÊÓƵ's Program
Environmental Studies is a social science degree that looks to how humans influence and are influenced by the environment. An environmental studies degree incorporates ways in which traditions of cultures around the world affect the environment. It examines the social and political aspects of how people and natural environment have interacted and continue to interact with one another.

Environmental Science
By contrast, the study of environmental science focuses mostly on the biological and chemical aspects, rather than the social and policy aspects of various environmental issues.
