�Ӱ�ר���The courses provided by the School of Geosciences have allowed me to gain technical skills in air, soil, and water quality testing and monitoring.�Ӱ�ר���

�Ӱ�ר���I do feel like I�Ӱ�ר���m getting a more personal education here, especially in the geology program. Our professors know us all personally by name. I really feel at home with them.�Ӱ�ר���

"There are a lot of labs in geology, and as you get into minerology and petrology, you get to hold the minerals and learn how to identify them. It�Ӱ�ר���s so hands-on that it makes sense. Once you see it in person, it sticks!�Ӱ�ר���

�Ӱ�ר���My decision to study environmental science stems from my childhood obsession with nature, plants, and being able to spend time outdoors. These are natural resources that I believe every human should have the opportunity to enjoy. Studying environmental science gives me the opportunity to leave the world better than I found it."

�Ӱ�ר���Pursuing a degree in environmental science at UL Lafayette has allowed me to play a part in protecting both the natural world and the people living in it.�Ӱ�ר���

�Ӱ�ר���I ended up taking a physical geology course as an elective, and two weeks in I knew I was going to be a geologist. I quickly developed a passion for geology, changed my major and never looked back �Ӱ�ר��� college got a lot easier after that, after you�Ӱ�ר���ve found what you�Ӱ�ר���re meant to do.�Ӱ�ר���
