Environmental Studies

[Superted]

Anyone any experience with this, did you enjoy it? etc?

Changed to this course next year, also comes with a Study in North America for the Summer of year 2 (2009 I think), so watch out America!

I had to take that class for my major and it sucked ass. Most boring subject ever. Most likely because I had the most boring teacher ever, meh.

its good to have some exposure to the whole "energy conservationism" topic. I took a few environment courses as well as global nutrition... really makes you aware of how wasteful you can be sometimes.

I'm taking it right now for a Science GUR....and it is boring as fuck.

But I've never enjoyed science anyways.

This thread isn't filling me with confidence I must say :P

Oh well, I can always change again year after. When I told my Mum I was changing course she told me I was too old for this, lol. If I dont change course again I'll be 25 when I finish my education

Well, it must be stated that my class has about 400 kids, most of whom are Freshman, in it and that the professor sits on stage with his mic and lectures the class from his power point....Since the class is so fucking huge.

I had a class like Squeezer's. Cept my teacher just droned on through her notes, endless, endless notes (bad memories) and she laughed at things that werent funny. She even made jokes about how boring her class is and that we are all asleep (which was true) but she continued to go on in her boring monotone. I seriously dont think she knew that her class was boring.

Out of interest, what are you changing from? I thought you wanted to go into psychology.

Changing from Philosophy & Psychology. I enjoyed Philosophy but Psychology wasn't as exciting as it was back in college. Furthermore, I'm not sure I'd have made a good Psychologist, I don't think I have the personality for it. After all, I was probably one of few studying Psychology that actually had a Psychologist of their own.

Fair enough.

I don't really know what's involved in an environmental science course but if I had to do a degree again I'd probably go down a biology/ecology route instead of, as i did, engineering.

It's a very broad and interesting subject IMHO, and you can barely break wind these days without needing an environmental impact assessment.

Would you have to do any geology? That is torture.

I'm a 2nd year environmental science biology spec major..if you love ecology, the environment, learning about life cycles, and doing field studies, this is the place to be =D

DIRL.

(geosciences is my major)

[Ewan]

You should have done Aerospace Engineering!
