I would recommend looking at Northeastern University. It is known for its experiential learning in all fields in its notorious coop program, tons of research opportunities, and travel learning as well. Very strong in all STEM with lots of minors and combined majors. They also have a really cool Three Seas program for marine sciences as well. They have various environmental science and studies programs. Even though it is an urban school, they have a great outdoors club etc. my younger D, CA surfer girl, even was involved in an informal (and now more established) surf club and surfed a decent number of times in all seasons. Not like surfing in Santa Cruz or CA coast, but she loved it. Both my D’s went there and had amazing coops and research opps (diff majors) that made them both super employable upon graduation and gave them great experiences to base their life choices on.

As a UCSB ENVS grad myself, I’d recommend looking at UCSB. great science and environmental programming.
