Soil Science

General

Introduction

The Undergraduate Certificate in Soil Science offers an undergraduate course of study that enables students to obtain the minimum 15 credit hours of soil science courses that are required to become a licensed soil scientist in some states or, nationally, a certified professional soil scientist. In addition, the program provides subject area credits necessary to qualify for soil scientist and conservationist positions in the federal, state and local governments. Those who complete this program will meet the coursework requirements for all three career advancement opportunities and will be eligible to become licensed or certified soil scientists. Graduates of this program working in the private sector will identify lands where new residential developments are most appropriate to maintain a community’s public health and environmental quality.  This program is unique among those with environmental interests in that it trains students to identify how lands can best be used to address smart urban growth while preserving wetlands and protecting other surface waters and groundwater quality. Target employers include engineering firms, environmental firms, and specialized soil consulting companies.
