The major in environmental policy analysis and planning develops an understanding of governmental policy-making and skills for analyzing policy in fields related to environmental quality.
Any student in good standing is eligible to transfer to the EPAP major; to do so, please see the major adviser, S.I. Schwartz (2140 Wickson Hall) or staff adviser, D. DuMont (2134 Wickson Hall).
The Program. This major provides students with a general background in the natural sciences relevant to environmental policy. It also provides sufficient training in mathematics, statistics, and research methodology to quantitatively analyze environmental problems and policy options. A strong background in policy analysis, including the evaluation of policy alternatives and the study of factors affecting policy formulation and implementation is included. In addition, students are encouraged to develop substantive knowledge in a specific field of environmental policy, such as urban and regional planning, water pollution control, or energy.
Career Alternatives. Environmental policy analysis and planning graduates are prepared for employment in public agencies, consulting firms, and businesses concerned with environmental affairs. The major is also excellent preparation for students who want to go on to graduate work in law, planning, public policy, or management.

The intercollege Division of Environmental Studies is a teaching and research unit offering courses, workshops, and directed group study classes that focus on the complex problems of human-environment relations. The division offers Bachelor of Science degrees in Environmental Biology and Management and in Environmental Policy Analysis and Planning. Courses in Environmental Studies also supplement major programs in a wide variety of established disciplines, although highly motivated undergraduates who find existing majors unsuited to their educational objectives are encouraged to contact the chairperson and faculty of the division regarding individual majors in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (see Individual Major in the Programs and Courses section).
Current Information. Through its continuing contacts with many other departments and teaching divisions on the campus, the division develops each year a variety of special courses and workshops that cannot be listed here. Students are advised to check with the Division Office and with the expanded course description handbook of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences for up-to-date information about courses.
Graduate Study. The faculty of the division offers graduate instruction through the M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs of the Graduate Group in Ecology, as well as through the graduate programs of the disciplines with which they are associated, such as agricultural economics, evolution and ecology, sociology, political science, civil engineering, and anthropology. Further information about graduate programs in ecology should be obtained from the chairperson of the Graduate Group in Ecology.

Prerequisite: graduate standing. (S/U grading only.)
Toxic agents found in the environment include pesticides, food additives, industrial waste, metals and chemicals produced by animals, plants, fungi and bacteria. Environmental Toxicology majors learn about the potential for toxicants to produce adverse effects by understanding both the environmental fate and biological activity of compounds. They learn about monitoring concentrations and the distribution and persistence of agents found in water, soil, air and foods. Toxicity testing procedures and exposure assessment are used to help signal potential for harm to humans and other species. By understanding the cellular targets and biochemical mechanisms perturbed by toxicants, toxicologists can better estimate adverse effects. Overall, the program teaches students how knowledge of the origin, fate and action of toxic agents helps toxicologists evaluate the risk of adverse effects and balance risks against the benefits of use.
The Program. Preparatory courses in biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics are required to provide the chemical and biological principles which underlie toxicology. Students in the major are expected to understand the environmental fate and biological activity of different classes of toxic substances, and the legislative issues which arise from chemical use. Opportunities are available to develop in-depth understanding in areas of emphasis through selection of electives.
Internships and Career Alternatives. Occupations that use environmental toxicology are environmental health and safety, monitoring and field sampling, residue or forensic analysis, pest control, pharmaceutical or food additive toxicity testing and research, risk assessment and managing regulatory compliance. A substantial proportion of graduates elect to pursue advanced training in graduate or professional schools. Others with the B.S. degree have gone on to law or medical school, as well as to degrees in pharmacology, toxicology, agricultural and environmental chemistry, or public health. During undergraduate study, optional internships or research projects are recommended to provide training and work experience to help students set future goals.

The mission of the Department of Exercise Science is the integrative study of human biology in the context of physical activity.
The Program. The undergraduate major may select either the Bachelor of Arts or the Bachelor of Science degree program. The Bachelor of Arts is primarily for those students who desire a liberal arts program with a broadly based lower division curriculum. This program permits specialization in either the biological or psychological aspects of exercise science, and is most appropriate for those who intend to pursue careers in coaching, teaching, or in community/corporate exercise programs, and for those intending graduate study in the behavioral aspects of sport and exercise.
The Bachelor of Science program is for students who desire a more intense curriculum in the natural sciences. It involves more extensive lower division preparation in physical and life sciences and requires additional upper division coursework more specific to either biomechanics or exercise physiology.
Career Alternatives. This degree program provides preparation for graduate study in exercise and sport science, for careers in the allied health sciences, and for professional schools in medicine, physical therapy, and podiatry.

Class and Recreational Use of Facilities. The incidental fee payable by all students at the time of registration entitles students to the use of the gymnasium, showers, towels, lockers, tennis courts, and athletic fields. Certain equipment for games and sports is available for exercise and recreation, either with or without instruction. Lockers must be turned in on the last day of class, i.e., before the final examination period. Fines are imposed for each formal transaction necessitated by failure of the student to comply with the regulations of the department.
The physical education program provides courses of interest to non-majors. The program focuses on physical activities and education, fitness and health, and recreation. The basic activities series includes Physical Education 1, beginning sports skills and knowledge, Physical Education 6, for students participating in intercollegiate athletics, and Physical Education 7, for students interested in a career in teaching/coaching in grades K-12.
Additional lower division courses include those in special skill areas, such as life-saving and water safety, scuba diving, and health and fitness. Upper division courses include advanced skills in scuba diving and a series of courses that meet the mandated requirements for students pursuing teacher preparation and certification.
The Physical Education program is independent of the degree programs, but is available as part of a student's general educational experience to enhance and broaden the understanding of physical activity in the maintenance of lifetime health and fitness.
