What exactly is this program? I know it is an interdisciplinary program; a mix of bio and environmental science where I can take courses from both programs but I'm wondering what I can get into after graduating with this program. I've been searching on McMaster sites but all they pretty much state is that it's a mixture of the two program. Any information would be great, thanks!

An academic advisor would give you the most information. You can also try the program counsellor if there is one (There usually is one for bio).

Hey! I don't know much about the program, but Dr. Luc Bernier does! He's the academic advisor for science programs within the School of Geography and Earth Sciences. you can email him to make an appointment with him: [email protected] I know he has a hand out with possible careers associated with this type of degree, as he had a pile of them made for May at Mac this year.

From my understanding...the program is designed for people interested in a more broad education centered around the living environment. Rather than pigeon holing yourself into bio or environmental sciences (geochemistry, hydrology, climatology, etc.)... it gives you skills in both.

Luc is wonderful. Very friendly and helpful
