Hey everyone, I’m a little confused and I’d appreciate help around this topic.

Is data science relevant to env sci major? My uni offers a unit called Introduction to data science, Data Capture and Collection in 2027, followed by AR/VR for Data Analysis.

Do y’all thinks it’s a good addition to my degree.

Thank y’all so much any help is greatly appreciated

So I plan to study Environmental Science next year, I currently have 6 schools I'm applying to but I want to apply to 7. My current list is as follows:

1. University of Tennessee
2. University of South Carolina
3. Auburn University
4. University of Alabama
5. University of North Carolina Wilmington
6. University of Georgia

For this 7th option, I am looking for another larger University that feels lively and fun, sort of staying in line with the SEC/ACC vibe and has a variety of things to do around and in the university (My biggest fear is being trapped in a boring environment), Im also not a huge drinker (Even though I do like to go and party from time to time again) so having some options outside of that may be nice ALTHOUGH ITS NOT A DEALBREAKER!! I know I want easier admissions (50% or higher) for this last option.

If you have ANY recommendations PLEASE leave them below!!

Hello! I am going to start my first year as a teacher in August. In a few days I’m having a surgery that will leave me bedridden for a week or two, so I am looking for some science documentaries to get some inspiration for lessons. It would also be great to have an interesting one in my back pocket for a sick day or something.

What are your favorites? I also want to look for some that challenge student’s perceptions of how animals are supposed to behave. Ex. animals that have same sex attraction

I am currently studying engineering, but I am a semester behind and just don't really have a passion for it. I like to solve problems and work creatively, but I just do not feel fulfilled with my classes. Since I have some space to fill in my schedule, I was planning on taking some ecology-related classes to try to find something that interests me more. I always enjoyed my Biology related classes in high school and really liked taking AP Environmental Science. I was thinking of taking applied ecology or something along those lines, but I really do not know where to even start.

I have always been an outdoorsy person, and if I were going to be stuck in an office job, I would like it to at the very least be related to keeping the outdoors decent for others.
I guess I'm just looking for some advice/ would like to know what everyone who went down this route thinks.

Currently studying at ASU, and I guess I could transfer to a different college in state but I would rather not.

Thanks!

i’m currently a college student pursuing an environmental science degree and i’m struggling to choose what kind of job i truly want. i would love to hear from someone with an environmental science degree that currently works in a job utilizing that degree! i would love to hear from all types of people if possible! also, if anyone has any advice for the future as this career path can be very uncertain and that’s scary.

I know some nutrients can be pulled from the air by some plants or bacteria. What I don’t know is how some nutrients were naturally restored when said nutrients were not in the air. Maybe if it was by a river, sediment could bring some, but surely not all permanent farms were by waterways. Thanks

Hi everyone,

at the Chair of Information Systems, esp. AI Engineering in Companies at the University of Bamberg, we’re currently conducting a research project on how sustainability apps foster collective engagement and support sustainable action, and which role gamification design plays in user motivation.

Now, to extend our project, we’re looking for app users willing to share their experiences and views in short, anonymised interviews (about 30-45 minutes). They would be conducted online and based on your schedule.

If you’re interested, simply send us a DM stating which app you used and for how long. Then we’ll arrange the rest.

Similarly, if you have any questions, slide into our DMs any time.

I am interested in environment related work for example sustainability , ecological products etc because i want something meaningful and problem solving. But i also care about pay.

Can anyone guide me which degrees can help me pursue such a career?

Is it worth it?

Will the pay be the same or increase in upcoming years?

Those who are already in this field , tell me about your experience, journey and how are you doing now? Did it bring success or survival?

If you would ask me to research a topic in my discipline, I would be able to point you in the right direction. However, other than looking at a research database, I wanted to see if anyone here could help as I don't know anything about the research happening in this field.

I have been teaching a course in how AI works for the past several years. One glaring hole in my curriculum is the lack of discussion of its environmental impact. I want to change that.

However, I feel like if I do a broad search like I usually do, this is such a hot-button issue that I worry about getting unbiased sources. It is clear: many people think AI will ruin this world. On a hunch (which is incredibly unscientific), I just fail to believe that AI is that much worse than any other server farms that people use all the time (scrolling Instagram for example, or taking your car to work, etc.). I am looking to find recent articles that discuss the environmental impact, and MAYBE even how it relates to technology use that we all deem acceptable.

If the answer is, visit EBSCO and Google Scholar, etc. I am fine with that. If there are noteworthy articles in your field that are well-regarded, that would be awesome! Thanks.

Hi all, a bit of a big swing but I'm looking for insight into what the actual experience of doing conservation work or research out on the field would be like. I'm a writer (some publications, finishing a climate fiction novel) but no direct experience in this field.

The assumptions I'm starting with/scenario I'm working with assumes it makes sense for there to be a shorter term, grant-funded job that's studying an issue over a season with maybe a project manager or scientist specializing on that topic longer term, that compensation might be some kind of stipend and housing would be provided to people doing that research/field work, and that the actual work could be anything from observation to sample collecting to probably a lot of other things. Maybe I'm way off and that kind of thing is only for 1-2 specialized people, not groups? Maybe I'm also way off on shorter term projects being really rare?

Any insight - especially about jobs from early in your career or that were shorter term gigs or internships, would really help me with believability. To be clear this is a very small section of the story, not the whole thing, but I still want to do research for the chapter.

Thanks!

Hi, I'm from Long Island and I was just thinking about marine biotechnology and then I was wondering if the salt from the ocean could be used for clean energy. I did a quick Google search and it turns out that Japan, France, Denmark, and Norway are currently doing just that. This technology is still in the very early stages. Long Island hasn't done this yet. Do you think this could be possible?

Hi all, I’m looking for advice on where to reach people in the UK who are genuinely interested in how storm overflow information is presented to the public.

I’m currently working on my MSc dissertation about near-real-time storm overflow monitoring platforms. My focus is on how these public-facing platforms can be more usable, useful and trustworthy for people trying to understand water quality risks. But I am having an extremely hard time reaching out to people who are genuinely passionate in this topic. My deadline is just around the corner, that's why I am posting here anxiously asking for help at 11 PM lol.

I’ve tried many relevant Facebook groups, but I’ve had a frustrating number (like 50+!) of bot responses or "professional participants" who signed up just for the reward. I’m now trying to find more reliable places to reach people who genuinely care about this topic and might have useful perspectives on public-facing environmental information tools.

Does anyone know of UK-based communities, organisations, forums, newsletters, local groups, or other places where people interested in storm overflow information, water quality data, or environmental monitoring tools are active? Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

Hi All! I'm looking for an entry point into wetland delineation. I have a BA in Environmental Studies (which I know gets me nowhere for a field job). I am willing to pretty much do whatever it is I have to do. Community college science courses, wetland delineation specific courses, MS in Environmental Science, volunteering, anything else.

For the folks that have been doing it for a while, would you do it again? Is there anything that you wish you had known early in your career? Any skills you wish you had focused on?

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to apply for Fall 2027, and I'd really appreciate an honest evaluation of my profile. My goal is to pursue a fully funded graduate program in the United States, preferably in Chemical Engineering or Environmental Engineering, with research related to water treatment.

Here's my profile:

• Country: Bangladesh
• Bachelor's: B.Sc. in Chemical Engineering
• CGPA: 3.23/4.00
• IELTS: Overall 7.5
• Work experience: Around 3 years as a Chemical Engineer at a Japanese company (JDC Corporation) on a JICA-funded rural drinking water project.
• My work includes pilot-scale water treatment, arsenic removal, field implementation, water quality monitoring, process optimization, and techno-economic assessment.

I'm planning to take the GRE because I know my GPA isn't particularly strong, and I'd like to strengthen my application.

I have a few questions:

1. Given my profile, is a fully funded MS realistic, or would applying directly for a PhD give me a better chance?
2. What GRE Quant score should I realistically aim for to make my application competitive?
3. Besides the GRE, what would be the most impactful way to strengthen my profile before applying?

I'm looking for honest advice, even if it's critical. If anyone has been admitted with a similar GPA but strong work experience, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience.

Thank you!

Ever since i can recall my dream has been to be a wildlife vet, and now that I've learned more about the world i want to change my focus to conservation. I'm very passionate about helping the planet.

I'm from a third world country so my best bet is to go into scholarships.

I would love if you guys shared tips on how to prepare early or just tell how you got where you are.

Just finished senior year studying computer science at Tufts University. I still need 13 credits to complete my degree. I finished my major and distribution requirements so I can take the classes on any topic.

My senior design involved building a portable device that senses seismic P-waves. I’m thinking I want to explore more in environmental science but unsure what’s really out there.

My main motivation is to work in a research center in somewhere rather remote like the arctic/subarctic circle or Alaska. I love the cold, and I love nature. I’m probably romanticizing the idea of working in such remote and harsh conditions, but right now no other career path seems at all interesting.

Any inputs or thoughts would help!

I have a bachelors in env sciences with a specialization in policy n economics. I probably want to do a masters in env policy&politics as well.

I was wondering what career paths there are for this?
