Summa Cum Laude
Environmental and Resource Management
My degree included hands-on projects and coursework to help me understand the scientific and technological aspects of byproducts, environmental health, sustainability, and natural resource conservation.
I developed a strong foundation in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics which gives me the skills to understand and manage key environmental technologies such as drinking water and wastewater treatment, hazardous and solid waste management, and industrial and mobile sources of air pollution.
Further, I gained knowledge of environmental and OSHA regulations and examined international environmental issues and strategies to achieve sustainable development.
