i have the same question. is the environmental sys degree easy to find a relate job? can i take the environemntal systems Ecology as a pre-med major?

ManOfFaith

There is no pre-med major. Being pre-med requires certain classes, but you can major in whatever you want as long as you take the pre-med classes.

Actually, it's weird. When I applied, I swear I put down Biology (Ecology) but when I got accepted, it was into Environmental Systems (Ecology). lol.

As for the course requirements, they're pretty much the same. I dont think it matters a lot.

Mercurial,
Thanks for the info. Are you now in the Environmental Systems or Biology Dept? and any advise for this major. I am thinking i may go for it.

ManOfFaith

Hey, what about me? I helped...
Mercurial: If you're a freshman now, that might be because you weren't accepted into the biology department. It's impacted, which means you can be accepted to UCSD but not to the UCSD biology department.
westin: The difference is that the environmental systems department requires you to take classes on environmental systems and take a senior internship project. And you have to take microecon, environmental econ, and policy analysis.

ManOfFaith,
Hey, thanks for help. More questions. How are the Env majors in ucsd? Are they small majors comparing to others department? I am interesting in for the Ecology major, is the senior internship project require for all 4 majors? Is it difficult? Thanks again!

ManOfFaith

The senior internship project is required for all majors in the environmental systems department. I don't know what it's like. What do you mean by "small major"?

westin

I tried to ask – are there only small amounts of the students are enrolled in the Environmental System major?

ManOfFaith

I don't know. It doesn't seem extremely popular, but I know a couple people with a major in the department.
