Get a Jump Start to Your Career
Looking for an academic challenge that will help you address present-day and future environmental concerns? Enroll in the Environmental Science Scholars Plan at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. This program in our College of Science and Engineering is multi-disciplinary, applications-oriented and designed to help you complete both the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Environmental Science efficiently and effectively. It’s perfectly tailored for highly motivated students who love the environment and love to learn in a stimulating atmosphere.
Build a Solid Core of Skills
As a student in the Scholars Plan, you’ll begin a graduate research project early
in your studies. This project will provide crucial clarity to the direction of your
degree. And once you complete the Bachelor’s degree portion of the Scholars Plan,
you could earn a waiver from taking the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) requirement
as you work on your Master of Science in Environmental Science.
