Environmental Sciences students are well prepared not only for environmental careers, but also for careers in many different areas. Every year, ES graduates pursue a variety of opportunities including working for the government, working in non-government or non-profit agencies, and working in the private sector. Many students also attend graduate school in academia (M.S. or Ph.D. programs) or in medicine, law, and other professional programs. The rigor and flexibility of the ES major allow students to adapt their coursework to best meet their career goals.

The best place to start searching for career and internship opportunities is the Career Center. The liaison for the College of Natural Resources is Susan Kishi. To make an appointment with Susan, email her at kishi@berkeley.edu or call the Career Center at 510-642-1716.
