Environmental Sciences Major

Do you want to cont­ri­bu­te to the de­ve­lop­ment of stra­te­gies for a safe, vi­brant and just fu­ture? In the Ba­che­lor En­vi­ron­men­tal Sci­en­ces you will ac­qui­re key competencies with which you can contribute as a change agent for sustainability to a fundamental transformation of society. Leu­pha­na is one of the pioneers in the area of in­ter- and trans­di­sci­pli­na­ry sustainability re­se­arch. Its Col­le­ge of­fers an in­s­pi­ring place to stu­dy en­vi­ron­men­tal sci­en­ces – you will meet many fel­low stu­dents who sha­re your ide­as and vi­si­ons. The Major Environmental Sciences is closely interlinked with the internationally oriented Bachelor Global Environmental and Sustainability Sciences; you will study in English and German.

Please note

The Environmental Sciences major is offered in German  and English and is thus directed at prospective students with a good command of German. The programme’s German-language web pages provide detailed information on the content of the course and application procedures.

Exchange students and international students please look at the web page of major Global Environmental and Sustainability Sciences which is taught entirely in English.
