<p>So is this a pretty tough major? I have a friend who tells me that it is a sought after major. Econ was my main goal until he told me that that there are plenty of Econ grads out there vying for jobs while ES degrees are more in demand. Is this true?</p>
<p>Ruben,
Does the Environmental Studies/Science major interests you? If so, go for it. If not, then the major might be a very tough experience to handle if you are not into it. Focus on what you enjoy. Your grades will reflect that. A college education at the undergraduate level is about exploring your interests. Never to prepare you for a job, or graduate school(to a certain extent). </p>
<p>As far as exploring a potential career is concerned, focus on the summer interships that the school provides. With regards to the major, check to see if you meet the requirements. This will determine how long it will take for you to complete the degree requirements.</p>
