Environmental Science & Policy

What Makes Our Program Different?

Explore the 3+2 Environmental Science/Studies Degree to Master's Pathway Program to complete a master's degree in just five years. Spend your first three years in the Environmental Science or Environmental Studies undergraduate degree at Franklin Pierce, completing all of your General and Liberal Education courses, and most of your major courses. Then enter into the two-year Master of Science program at Antioch University, selecting either Environmental Studies or Resource, Management, and Conservation as your program of study.

Work through a collaborative teaching model to explore this relevant and expanding field. Senior year coursework (year 4) will be credited from both universities toward both degrees.
