Environmental Sciences

You are a natural resource

Going green is no longer just the right thing to do. It’s also a smart career move. Demand is higher than ever for skilled workers in such fields as renewable energy, resource stewardship, environmental oversight, and land management. They’re the industries ― and the career pathways ― of the future.

Lakeland has been sending people into those careers for a long time. Nearly 100 percent of our students go directly into the work force or acquire a 4-year degree, and then join the work force.
