Environmental Science


Core Curriculum
Request More Info

Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary study of natural sciences (biology, chemistry, geology) and social sciences (economics, politics, ethics) as they apply to the environment. Focus is on energy issues, climate change, ozone loss, land use, conservation and management, deforestation and biodiversity, among other topics. Practical lab experience emphasizes scientific application as well as critical thinking and analysis.

Taking environmental science classes at Dallas College is an affordable way to get started on a path to a brighter future. Whether you’re taking classes to transfer to a four-year college or university, or for personal enrichment, our curriculum will give you the foundational skills you need.

Environmental Science courses are listed under the four-letter rubric (course prefix) ENVR.
