Introduction
The new interdisciplinary Master of Science in Environmental Resource Science at UL Lafayette focuses on two of our world’s most critical resources: water and soil. Our aim is to educate and prepare you for a career in which you investigate, characterize and manage those water and soil resources responsibly and effectively.
In our environmental science graduate program, we emphasize scholarly research and how to apply that research in industry. Our research areas include water quality and resources, hydrogeology, wetland and coastal systems, climate reconstruction, isotope geochemistry, soil resources and remediation, and more. Learn more about our environmental science research.
Our location in Lafayette, LA, helps make the School of Geosciences the ideal place to earn your graduate degree in environmental science. We have a strong agricultural industry, close ties to the oil and gas industry, and we are home to 40 percent of the country’s freshwater wetlands—meaning you will have an abundance of research, internship, and career opportunities in your own backyard.
