Environmental, Earth and Ocean Sciences (EEOS), Minor
Addressing environmental issues will likely be a part of all UMass Boston students' future careers and civic lives. This might mean increasing sustainability in workplaces, reducing environmental impacts of residences or local manufacturing, or understanding and preparing for the impacts of climate change.
EEOS thus offers two options for undergraduate minors for students seeking to include a breadth of environmental knowledge as a complement to degrees from other departments: a Clean Energy and Sustainability minor, and a minor in EEOS.
The minor in EEOS includes required courses in environmental science and policy, as well as the opportunity to select 3 additional courses from among EEOS's offerings. The minor concludes with a capstone project. (Download minor in EEOS requirements checklist.)
