I can’t even say how helpful this was. I just switched to environmental science because i have a passion for animals. There is not one animal specifically that I only want to help. I want to help animals and the environment as one big whole. This video really helped me know this is the right path for me. I know with this major I will be able to make the impact I so badly want to. I really couldn’t be more excited.
Same here
I am so excited at the expansion of this field! I was an animal-loving pre-vet major in undergrad and switched midway because I was unhappy. I never looked back after switching to EHS. I continued through grad school and am now about 10 months out from having a phd in it :) Still love animals - my two cats and one dog have kept me sane through all of this. Best of luck to you in your studies as an environmental health scientist!!
Go forth, Anna! We are with you
I love youu💙
Hey I am also an environmental science student... and I also want to do the same like you 🙂
Kristina , I appreciate your enthusiasm in this video. I am a middle-aged man who has recently decided to go back to college and get my degree in Environmental Science. Your video has confirmed that this is the right thing for me to do.
So glad it has helped you
@Mike 4.1 Hi Mike. How's your transition to Env Health going? I'm 32.. an engineer + MBA who feels out of place in the corporate world. Planning to shift my career path again though it feels extremely difficult at this age.

@@Abhishek08_ Hello Abhishek, I am in my second year of college now. I love going to school. It will be a couple of years before I graduate, so I am still in my old job. I hate the corporate world though and look forward to having the chance to move on once I graduate
@@michaelg4896 Hi Michael. So good to hear from you. Great to hear that you're enjoying going back to school. :)
I can completely relate to your feeling of disliking the corporate world. It feels hollow.
Is there any particular role that you plan to take up after graduating in Env Science? E.g. - a Researcher or something else?
Honestly this is my first time seeing an environmental science CZcamsr. I’m glad I found this channel. 3 years ago I was searching for videos regarding environmental sciences but YT results only came up with foreign university promotion material. I ended up going to Australia (I’m from Sri Lanka) to study a 3-year degree and it was worth it! The knowledge and the experiences in studying and interning with environmental groups made me more curious about the world we live in. Now I’m a graduate in environmental sciences and looking to advance in to research and sci com!
I'm glad you enjoyed your degree! Yes, we need more enviro sci youtubers for sure!
Hey I just a EVS wannabe and I am in big pressure from my family to not take it because of its unpopularity but I am so so interested in it that I don't think I can let it go ... Can you please share your experience with me ?
Hey @shashdodampahala, Glad to know you're a Environmental Science graduate, I completed my bachelors in Environmental Science this year and is looking for a masters program in abroad, but I'm confused. I don't have any mentors in this field in my place(I'm from Kerala), so is there any ways to contact you. It would be awesome if you responded. Cheers! Thejus
Hello I’m from sri lanka too. Can u recommend me a university? Idk from where to start even
@@kristina_lynn @Enviro ArtLife is doing an ms in environmental science hard for a student who is not good at chemistry??? What are the job opportunities for an environmental scientist in usa??
Greetings from Brazil! I'm a biologist and i have experience in remote sensing research in the Amazon region, look forward to work and develop projects concerning about land-use and land-cover change in tropical forests.
Lot of validation for my choice of major from this. You are my biggest inspiration for studying environmental science. Let’s make the world a better place together!
thank you for your videos! having been debating between environmental science and environmental/civil engineering, the science path excites me far more. I'm almost 40 which definitely makes it tough to change careers (electrical eng/mfg and telecom until now) to one which requires a new degree. but I have nothing tying me down and as I said, environmental science truly excites me. gen ed finishes this year, so next year the party begins!
this was so insightful, and answered so many of my questions that other videos just haven't been answering. really appreciated this.
thank you I am subscribed and looking forward to more content. Thank you so much for all the beautiful work you do.
This is what my major is, but I’m starting to worry that it will get too challenging for me as I continue my education at college :(
I really am passionate about this, but ahhh I’m kinda stressed! Especially with internships
Maybe you could try environmental studies, very similar but more justice and social science focused!!
I hope you find something that suits you and makes you happy. Some colleges offer "tracks" like a medical vs. non-medical track. Non-medical track will cut out quite a lot of the more challenging classes like physics and organic chemistry. Our program also offers leniency with internships, for instance, working in a professor's research lab at your college for a summer could count as an internship. I recommend meeting 1:1 with the advisor or coordinator and exploring your options, if you haven't already. Best of luck to you!
We have all been here! Even if you chose a simpler path, you would’ve felt like this at one point. Stay strong and stay confident ❤️
@@lalunamoon5711 thank you so much 💜
I think you should stick with environmental science and finish with that major. I majored in environmental management which is easier but most jobs will not accept people with that major. They only want environmental science, biology, or geology majors for remediation and environmental analyst jobs that are common in my area. It's been 10 years and has been a struggle. I may try to do a masters in Environmental Science.
I'm your new subscriber dear Kristina I'm glad to hear some one who is far more enthusiastic in environmental science than me❤
Thank you for this! I am currently thinking about switching my degree to environmental science and this video has really helped in my decision making.
I live in Michigan and I have a bordline obsessive passion for fishing and the outdoors. Being 31 I questioned whether or not I could attempt college again after a brief try in my teens. All your videos helped me a lot informatively on what to possibly expect going into this career and greatly appreciate that. 1 of my main goals is to help protect this regions waterways from what seems like an insurmountable task of the Asian Carp Invasion (bighead, silver, grass). I am currently in the last 2 semesters of getting my Associates in Science from Macomb C.C and transferring to University of Michigan-Flint to get my Bachelor's in Wildlife Biology. It always felt right to pursue this career and to reiterate, A lot of your videos have only influenced me and excited me more than ever to complete what I set out to accomplish. Thank you.
Same here I’m 29 and thinking of taking environmental science going to college again I mean I was in AP environment science in high school 😂 but I forgot all about it smh
Every thing you say is on point!! This helps me really pursue envi sci and I'm more excited than scared of knowing the doom and gloom side of this 😀
I graduated from undergrad with a degree in Biology, took the first job that would pay my bills when I graduated, which ended up being call center work.... I'm still doing the same thing. I want to jump careers so badly, but I definitely talk myself out of applying due to neurological issues that I have--every morning is a surprise as to how I'll wake up feeling. I love watching your videos, definitely gives us a great inside view to your professional world.
Thank you for making videos on environmental science! Very important to me
Kristina, I needed this video so much. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in communications and want to take postgraduate studies in environment with my non-profit background backing me up. I'm in the middle of writing my letter of intent and your video is so helpful, just strengthened my decision to pursue this field. It just feels right. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Hello, I took the exact same path with the same interest. Im curious, since it’s been 2 years, do you have any updates?
Thx for the video. I'm planning on going to community college to become an environmental science technician. I've always been passionate about the environment and nature so I think it'll be a good career for me
You have helped me so much. I've been watching your videos for a little while now because I am looking for guidance on what I should do/study. I'm currently a junior in college majoring in Biology with a focus on forensics and I'm about to switch to a major in Ecology. Thank you for your honesty in all of your videos and showing what these careers really entail. Your videos have helped me understand things better than anyone else. I feel like a weight is lifted off my shoulders knowing you have a video for every question I have.
So glad to help!
Any updates I am applying for universities and colleges and can't deside whether to major in biology or environmental science I like to study anatomy and these stuff but I don't like chemistry a lot any advice?? I want to do biology because I have a patience in medicine but in case I ever changed my mind for medical school am scared it would be too much to handle. Any advice please?? 😅
I just completed my associate's in sustainability \ environmental studies! Here for ideas on what to do next lol thank you for the information!
I always love your videos. I'm just struggling to find a big kid job in wildlife biology with minimal experience. I goofed up in college.
I'm currently a freshmen taking Biology and I've been thinking about majoring in Environmental Science. I definitely want to be a part of conservation and when I found your channel, my love for the environment grew more. I'm from the Philippines and our environment is super degraded but it's still not prioritized sadly. Thank you so much for inspiring me, Kristina!
Hi, where do you study? I don't know any schools in the Philippines that offered Biology with the option to major in Envi Sci. Btw, I'm a 2nd year BS Bio, and I'm planning to major in Ecology and Systematics so (for context, UP Baguio has three "tracks" or major to choose from in third year which include Gen. Bio, Microbio, and Ecology & Systematics) ^-^. In any case, I wish both of us luck in pursuing this field for the future of our country, which would undoubtedly be very complicated given the... chaos
Hello fellow Filipino biologists!! Glad I found these comments in this channel cheers to us who are now in the brink of choosing our majors!!
I'm from PLM by the way and it offers Ecology as a Major.
@@mikeeuy4122 I study at DLSU Dasmariñas po, BS Bio. They offer specializations in Envi Sci, Plant Bio, and Animal Bio hehe,, good luck to us, ate! praying for our country hahaha
Thank you so much! This vid somehow reminds me to keep motivated despite from all the negative comments of some people around me who said that this field isn't for me. I hope to see more videos of you sharing info about this field 💕
Glad I could help! If you enjoy the types of work and love the planet then this field is for you!
Don't listen to the Negative Nancys....No one can decide for you your future or career.
Your videos are great resources for college students!!! Thank-you for doing this!! **from an enviro-science student ucsc**
Thank you so so much for this video!
I'm nearly 30 years old and I still haven't figured out what to do for a career. I've always been a huge animal lover, I've been vegan for 2 years now, and I'm rediscovering my love for the environment and have found a passion for sustainability.
I was thinking about going back to college for nutrition and dietetics (to be a plant based dietician) or getting a psychology degree. But I really do think this is a better fit for me, I'm just not sure exactly what to do. I'll be searching through more of your videos for inspiration! Thanks again. ☺️💚
hello, how is it going? I am a person who is in the same situation just like you.
Haven’t watched yet but yay! This feels like a video made for me, thank you so much!
You're so welcome!
I just finished my Environmental Science homework and CZcams recommend me this. This is helpful 🙏
As someone who is passionate about environmental conservation I have recently decided I wanted to work in this field at first I was wanted to do marine biology until I realized that wasn't going to fulfill my desire to help the world. I would rather be happy knowing I am trying to help rather than trying to be rich. a modest life is more than enough if you are happy. I have so many cool ideas if I get to work in the field someday I hope to put them to use! thank u for sharing your experience "I'm sold" :D
i’ve always had a love for nature and learning about nature, as someone who is also spiritual, nature is very healing for me and i just feel so amazing while being outside and learning about the outdoors. i recently moved to San Diego and i’m so beyond blessed to live in such a beautiful area which insane nature surroundings, just makes me want to be outside even more and learn about the outdoors, not to mention i’ve always been so curious to learn about plants and animals i think they are so adorable and we need to protect them and help them live in the best environment possible, they do some much for us it feels good to give back to them while being outside which is the best ever. I’m currently in school studying outdoor resource management recreation administration but i might switch over to environmental science, the classes are pretty similar but i’d like to get into the science aspect of it plus the jobs after look like something is be very interesting in. I work as a gymnastics coach and i love working with kids so i also wouldn’t mind teaching them but i feel environmentalist make more money in that field plus i’m a bit more interested in those jobs vs. the ones with kids, sending good luck and positive energy for anyone that needs it 💚☘️☘️☘️☘️ nature is on your side 🌸🌸🌸
I'm was going to be a nurse, but now I'm majoring in ESCI. I want my career to involve the environment's health and human health, e.g. reducing plastic and waste. Thanks for the video, very informative!👍
oh my god same!! I had everything planned out to go into nursing but then i realized it wasnt what i wanted to do!!
Brilliant initiative. Very well done.
any text book recommendations for me to get ready to study for that major? which books should i buy for that major in new jersey students?
I’m currently finishing up my environmental protection technology diploma and have decided to Transfer to royal roads university in Victoria for a bachelors in environmental science so I really appreciate the fact that you have some Canada content and are spreading the word
Oh cool! Royal roads is such a nice campus 🌊
I just got accepted into my envromental science program! This vidoe just made me even more excited.
Same here
as a recent graduate from college with an environmental studies degree, i found this video very helpful! excited to watch more of your videos! thanks for sharing :)
Hi shannon, I wanted to ask if you were able to find a decent enough paying job with that degree. I’m a senior majoring in EVRN studies and I’m contemplating dropping out or not.
@@Shamnez7367 hi! I’m currently not working in the environmental science/studies field at the moment. I’m sure with enough research/finding good mentors you could find a well paying job in that field! Best of luck! :)
thank you, I really really needed this
Thank you very much... Your videos made my path clear about what l should choose.... In science 💜
studying for my ENSCI100 test and needed some motivation. Thank you :)
Good luck with the test!!
is studying ENSCI hard?
Your video speaks to my soul. Love your energy
Heh kristina best regards from Nepal. I am an environment science bachelor graduate and planning to apply to the US for my masters degree. I am a really passionate individual when it comes about plants, animals and the environment as a whole. Thank you soo much for this video. It is really informative.
Glad to see person from nepal commented❤
I was very confused about choosing microbiology or environmental science... I need to get to the conclusion 💚
Your energy is uplifting and contagious ✅
I am currently switching my major to Environmental Science so this video was super helpful! I’m honestly really worried about the classes and how difficult they will be.. any advice is welcome. I know I am incredibly passionate about the planet & sustainability but I’m so nervous about college and the courses :(
i do a few science like classes and by advice is if you don’t understand something immediately ask, make friends with the ppl in your class to form study groups and even get a tutor to help!! if you don’t ask questions abt something that you’re struggling with then it will be very difficult but ask questions, don’t procrastinate your work, and stay optimistic and you’ll be good! good luck 🍀 💚💚💚
Ive always wanted to become a wildlife biologist, my passion is in conservation and the studying of ecossystems my issue is the lack of jobs that i see thag are not in a lab analising samples, here in portugal we have near 0 wildlife biology jobs the only jobs available are related to programming and eletrical mecanics its depressing
I am studying environmental biology, and I'll like to travel the world to see and appreciate the beauty of what we have and help in making it a better place but I don't really know which sector I want to specialize in
This was so amazingly helpful!
Getting my bachelors in environmental science and still don’t know what I want to focus onbecause it all sounds so interesting that I wish I can do it all
hi! i was wondering, if i’m in 8th grade rn, what classes should i take in high school if i want to b an environmental scientist? i’m pretty sure i’m gonna join all science related after school clubs that i can, but is there any classes/APs i should be taking? sorry, i’m just a bit lost and i go to a rly hard school. tysm

Thank you such this kind of video I've been looking for ever since I take environmental science as my course in college 😊 BTW I'm freshmen student in the philippines taking this course 😊
how did you realize that the environment was your strong suit? I want to study environmental science, but I can't tell if I'm well suited for it
how do you feel about the environment? are you constantly interested and curious to know more about it? do you search about environmental crises frequently? do you feel the urge to always spread awareness about climate change/global warming etc..
I agree with the others. Your video is very helpful. Thank you.
Got a 4 on that AP environmental science test this year 👌🏽
Goood job!
@@jessicahinde786 should i study environmental science or wildlife biology?😐
@@Ela-lz9kk personally I would go for wildlife biology bc that way you could help animals directly rather than through the environment, but do what you love no matter what!❤️
@@jessicahinde786 same, thanks. I want to be a wildlife biologist! Good luckk sis❤️
I was studying ecology and management of natural ecosystems in Morroco. I graduated this year and my dream is to have the courage to make a CZcams channel to be able to educate my community about the importance of the environment and the nature on our well beings and our life as a whole ♥️
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU YOU ARE EXCELLENT
.. GOD BLESS YOU NOW!
What if we want to focus on prioritizing the policies that are set aside? What major would you suggest? Is PoliSci helpful?
You have lots of really helpful information in the realm and I was wondering if you know anything of sustainable/alternative living methods like building eco friendly buildings or houses, kind of career?
Hi Ma’am, I have an undergrad degree in biological sciences (Biomed) and I’m almost done with my masters in Biotechnology. I am very interested and curious about nature and wildlife. Is there anything I can do with my Biotech degree in relation to wildlife? Thanks.
im about to apply for this degree and this video made me tear up thinking about how much of an impact I or anyone in the field could have on the future of this planet. I think im gonna shoot for it!
This video is amazing. I now major in environmental technology in Malaysia. I am happy and enjoy studying this field. In the future, I wanna make this planet a better place for every SPECIES.
Hiiii may I know where r u studying ;-; I’m rly interested in this course but dk which schools provide it
hi Im an spm student and I'm considering taking this path, how has working been so far ??
Thank you for this video it really helps, because i want to apply environmental science in college.
Thank you for this video! You make me compelled to have a biology degree!
I just applied yet I really want to be out in the field. I've always had a knack in biology and love animals as well as plants.
So confused with career but every of u r video push my decision to environmental science 😇
Hello Ma'am,
I'm following your channel since maybe 6 month although it’s my first comment. Actually you are a great mentor for me cause when I completed my high school study I'm totally confused at that time. Then I search at youtube and found your channel which helps me to acknowledge my future goal.Now I'm staying in Bangladesh, which is my motherland.Hopefully when this covic situation came to undercontrol I can come to Canada and study in my dream subject.
Love you from Bangladesh
All the best! Thank you :)
I’ve heard that it’s better to get an environmental engineering degree instead of an environmental science degree because it would be easier to find a job with an engineering degree. What is your take on this?
Did you ever find feedback on this?
I'm going to apply to uni to study zoology in 2 years . Need to get some grades first though . Wanna study spiders and their habitats
I am currently studying Tourism and Hospitality Management. When Covid-19 hit, the tourism industry stopped. Even for Tourism, I had to learn Environmental Conservation. Without these destinations, there is no tourism. That's when I got so interested in Environmental preservation and Sustainability. I am from Myanmar, where a democratically elected government is detained by the brutal military and inevitable civil war is about to happen. So my school stopped since we boycotted military terrorists. But on the bright side, I got another chance to change my major from Tourism to Environmental Science that a country like Myanmar needs. I am applying for a scholarship now. Hope I can learn the subject I wanted to learn and contribute back to my motherland when this long nightmare finishes. Thanks for all the facts and experiences you shared. I like to grow plants and flowers.
I have debated majoring in environmental science and after watching this I am a bit more intrigued. Thank you
Same
I would love to study environmental science, I wish I realized this when I was younger. Im 34 now and Im a registered massage therapist I like my job but it causes me so much grief so when ever I start to think about making a career change I think about something along these lines. I have a huge passion for animals and the environment and I wish I knew about all this when I was younger!!!!
it’s not too late to make the change !!!!
You can do it! The time will pass anyway so it doesn't matter the “age“... You are limitless even more reason to go get it! Live your dreams ❤
Same here I’m 29 and ima start soon plus I was in AP environment science in high school but forgot about it lol
Currently in my second year at the university of manitoba in integrated biology. I definitely enjoy educating people about WHY they should not dump raw sewage or nitrogen into the lake . Or why not to put salt blocks in the lake to kill off the cattails so they can see better. Though the second one I was actually extremely pissed about.
Wow, I shouldn't even be surprised anymore that people do that, but WOW :(
I'm earning diplomas online in Environmental management and Ecology Studies. Fascinating material indeed. Thank you for spreading the message of importance in climate change. I hope to start up doing something for the environment. Money or not, that doesn't matter to me.
I graduated in 2013 with an environmental science degree and obtained a master's degree in natural resources in 2017. I left the environmental field due to the low pay nature of the positions and constant seasonal work with no benefits. It is also exhausting battling 100+ other applicants for a permanent job. The jobs themselves are rewarding, but after countless hours worrying if I would be able pay rent or if I would have a job in five months, I couldn't do it anymore. I am glad that you were able to make it work and are still excited about the field.
Hey do you not recommend going for environmental science then ?? What did you go with after leaving this field then ?
Love your videos !!!
here, an environmental science student from Spain.
I would like to specialize in biodiversity conservation,
any advice?
I’m 22 and considering Wildlife science
Hey Kristina, I’ve been binge watching a ton of your videos as I’m looking to major in environmental science starting next fall. From your work and academic experience, what are some minors that would compliment my major well? What do many employers in this field like to see to boost your application? If you’ve addressed this in a video of yours, let me know and I’ll be sure to give it a watch. Thank you
Hi Trent! Minors aren't essential but if you want to do one some good choices are GIS or a minor in a specialty subject you're interested in (like zoology, botany etc). GIS is useful across all disciplines. Employers mostly look for interenship and/or research experience on your resume!
@@kristina_lynn Thank you, this helped a lot!
Hey I am supposed to graduate in a few months with an undergraduate degree in Botany. Can you suggest me on what are my prospects now? What is, in your opinion, my best option now?
May I know what are the subject prerequisite for each of these sciences?
I wish I knew about this major before graduating with a business major!
Hi there! Would you say environmental science is for me if I’m interested In solving environmental problems and interested and passionate about science in general (the other majors I’m interested in are chemistry/biochemistry biotechnology microbiology and biomedical science) and I love learning about pollution and what is causing it and it’s affects on living organisms and also animals climate change global warming etc and really interested in lab work and also field work but I’m not exactly connected to anything or I don’t feel a connection to the environment or anything really and being more interested in like the whole “puzzle” if that makes sense ?
I just got accepted into Unity environmental college located in Maine for a bs in "Environmental Studies" I may further it. I didn't see a bachelor's for "environmental science" but I saw on their site about studying to get a master's towards "environmental science and sustainability." I'd like to be a park naturalist or park ranger or maybe even both since, park rangers are naturalists, too. Does my choice of studies seem like a good choice? I know there's many other earth sciences I could study like conservation law, environmental management, ecology, biology, etc! Do you know if the one I chose to study would be right for what I want to do?
🎉 thank you so much
I am an incoming freshman for this course. I enrolled to it as I planned to specialize in Meteorology or Geology but I worry about my Biology and Chemistry, I am honestly bad at those subjects
Hey! I love all your videos. Can you tell us about more of your office work too? So that I can also understand how office work is and will I be able to take that as one of my works too. Iam just in my highschool right now, studying biology with all the other sciences. I also want to know whether computer science is necessary for office work? Like... Is it mandatory to take up computer science in the field? I would like to hear the answers from you, as you're experienced 😊 I aslo like to travel, but have a slight fear of exposure towards the species(especially about viruses during pandemic) and can you tell me of how you overcame your fears in this field, if you have any😊
I do need to make an office work video as there's a lot to talk about. Ive never had to take any computer science courses but I went to school like 10 years ago so things may have changed. My fears in the field were mostly revolving around people to be honest, like my personal safety, and they were way less once I got out more so I would recommend starting with local nature hikes to get used to being exposed to the wild - of course, when everything is safe to do so for covid :)
Great video. Are you based in the US. What is your advice for so done who is completing environmental engineering bachelor's. What are top companies to intern for. What is the average starting salary
I'm currently taking intro to climate change and my eco-anxiety is through the roof!
Are you learning it in college or from free online sources?
Hi, I am engaged in beaver protection in Xinjiang, China. However, due to the lack of professional knowledge in wildlife and environmental science, I plan to go to Canada to study environmental science, and I plan to accumulate one among relevant enterprises. I returned to Xinjiang after some work experience. Excuse me, what are the employment prospects of Germany after graduating from the major of environmental protection?
thank you for sharing your truth
Thanks! this helped :)
I really wanted to study environmental science but where I live there weren’t any good universities offering the major so I ended up studying Social development and policy, I am now in my third year. However, I was always more interested in the science aspect more and I’m just wondering if another major would be a good option if I can get the chance someday or are there things I can do right now to understand the more scientific aspects of the environment and get into this side of the field since I feel the policy aspect doesn’t excite me as much?
If your goal is to be a scientist, you'll need some sort of natural science major like ecology, environmental science, biology. If you just want to learn more about the environment but aren't interested in being a scientist necessarily, you can see if your university will let you take some ecology courses!
thanks for the valuable information. I wanna do this because i love trees and wanna protect them from wildfires. I wonder if this major takes me into being a forest technician to help with the health of forest and making it fire safe. thanks
I haven't worked too much on the forestry side, but I think an environmental science major would be a good choice for that. Maybe if you could also take some forestry classes (or a forestry minor) and try to get in on some research during your undergrad related to forest health then that would be even better.
oh my god,i love your work 💗
Thank you so much!!
I am student who is really struggling between majoring in environmental science or environmental studies. are the two very different? do they offer different job opportunities? I am not too good at the hard sciences such as math and chem but I am very passionate about working in the field and traveling around to study wildlife and plants but I don't think I could get that with environmental studies. Could you make a video about environmental studies or the difference between the two? Thanks, these videos are very helpful!
Every school is different but environmental studies majors are seen as less technical "science-y" than an environmental science major. If you're interested in being a scientist, definitely go with the environmental science major. It can be tough out there for environmental studies majors to get hired over someone with the technical science education.
I just started my Enviromental Science major yesterday, despite the opposition from my family to follow my passion for animals and nature. I just hope that Wildlife jobs won't be too competitive in the next 4 years
The job market in general is rough out there, but you'll be at the top of your peer group job searching if you do as many relevant internships and research positions as you can during your schooling :)
Please could you tell me what major did you take.. because I completely relate with you. I want to take a field that is close to my heart not for money. What major did you take where you had this field work, animal care and learning to create safer environment with less pollution? As Environmental Sciences is a really broad field..
How competitive is the climate/ecology/environmental fields
I want to be a part of improving the climate
This is exactly what I needed to hear thank you!
You're video was inspiring. I'm doing bs in Agricultural Sciences (Agronomy), so is that a good idea for me to study environmental sciences for masters?
Hello Ma'am..I am from India & I am a Postgraduate Student in Environmental Science & this is my last year so any chances Can I get there? Or any link can you suggest me.. I need ur help ma'am ☺️
No me watching this after already graduating 😭. As much as I love genetics and molecular biology I would love to do more environmental science related research.
Do a master about what you love then!😉
Thanks ❤
Hi Kristina, I’m currently a senior majoring in EVRN Studies B.S, will this degree get me a job in the field or office? Im contemplating on finishing or dropping out. Ive always wondered if it will be worth it or not.
Just finished my environmental degree. I love environmental science 🙌🏾
Is it easy to find employment?
