What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make. ~ Jane Goodall
Are you passionate about the environment?
Palomar College offers a Certificate of Achievement in Environmental Studies that prepares you to transfer into the Bachelor of Arts, Environmental Studies program at Cal State San Marcos (CSUSM).
Required Courses
- BIOL 118: General Ecology
- GEOG 100: Earth’s Dynamic Environment: Intro to Physical Geography
- GEOG 105: People and the Environment: Intro to Human Geography (counts for ENVS 100 at CSUSM)
- GEOG 120: Digital Earth: Intro to GIS
- PHSC 101: Principles of Physical Science
These five courses complete the certificate. However, to complete all of your lower-division major coursework prior to transfer, we recommend that you also take ENVS 210 at CSUSM while you are still a student at Palomar College, for only $10 per unit!
