Program Overview

The Environmental Geoscience program provides a balance of theoretical and applied course work designed to challenge students to think critically, analyze problems, and seek resolutions; strengthen communication skills; and deliver a range of other employable skills. Environmental Geoscience students will enhance their theoretical learning with applied skills in scientific communication, environmental analysis, and biogeography. In addition, students have the opportunity to take a wide variety of field school courses within the program that provide a range of experiences and training in a field environment.

The Environmental Geoscience program aligns with CMTN’s institutional priorities, including the college’s Strategic Plan and the three core values of CMTN: Adventurous, Transformative and Integrity.

ADVENTUROUS
We explore and take calculated risks to engage in learning. We are innovative in finding new ways to move courses into the field. We explore adventurous career paths with our students. We seek to discover new ways to apply pedagogy to our teaching processes. We are actively engaged in finding unique ways to partner in our field-based research. We take advantage of our geography and climate in order to provide field-based education to all learners.

TRANSFORMATIVE
We enrich lives through learning. We include experiential learning in our program renewal. In addition, we transform our learning spaces to respond to an ever-changing educational landscape. We help others improve their lives, families and communities through education. We also help others in the communities we serve, to seek new career opportunities to improve their lives. We recognize how many of our alumni have transformed their lives through education. We take education to our communities when we engage in field-based pedagogy research. We embed our curriculum in a cultural context relating to the rich cultural diversity of First Nations in the northwest region.

INTEGRITY
We are respectful, transparent and accountable to our learners. Our faculty live by example and we conduct ourselves in an ethical manner. We communicate with clarity so everyone can understand our intent. We promote the concept of sustainability where social, environmental, and economic values must all be considered.
