The Environmental Biology certificate is designed for the student who wants to enter the Environment and Sustainability workforce with a solid knowledge and skills in terrestrial ecology and environmental biology. Students will experience the Rhode Island environment and ecology in hands-on laboratory settings that take them into the field, in addition to learning theory and experimental methods in the classroom. Students will learn about insects, soil, geology, plants, and trees and the interaction of all of these in the greater environment.
Upon completion of the certificate, students may elect to complete another certificate in Environmental Biology or pursue a Business Certificate. Students may also continue their education by applying all courses to the completion of the Environment, Sustainability, and Management Associate of Science degree.
