Top Universities Around The World for Environmental Science Studies

Mining and engineering were once the pinnacle of professional endeavors. But, with the passing of time, they have lost their shine. The modern era demands that we care for the environment, which is so important to our human lives. The future of professional orientation will be on environmental scientists. These are people who care about the environment and want to save it. If you feel called to this cause, then you’re in the right place.

These are the top universities around the world that offer environmental science programs.

1. Harvard University, U.S.A.
   Environmental Scientists are not only known for their excellent academic courses. They also have a reputation for their collaborations, both with MNCs and nongovernmental organizations. These works are documented in academic journals and magazines and serve as a guideline for students at other universities. Harvard is the ideal place for anyone who wants to get real-world experience while still pursuing academics. There is no better place if you want to be published. This list includes all the top institutions, but Harvard has the highest number of papers that are published and cited internationally. Harvard is an undergraduate university that you can continue with your studies well into your doctoral thesis.
2. Stanford University, U.S.A.
   Stanford is more than an academic paradise. It is also a haven for academicians and researchers. It hosts seminars and workshops that attract hundreds of scholars every month. As a student of Environmental Science, you will have the chance to work alongside some the best minds in the field. Every day will bring you cutting-edge research, thought-provoking discussions and cutting-edge research. Stanford allows you to present your ideas, research, and hypothesis. This should give you an idea of how difficult it can be to get in at the university. It is a tough place for the brightest minds to apply for a seat at this university. Once you’re through, every door you can think of will be open for you to take.
3. University of Oxford, U.K.
   The Oxford University Press is well-known among academicians. Apart from its academic reach, the University of Oxford has a large number of publications per year. These publications are the culmination of years of hardwork by dedicated researchers. As a student, you have access to many sources of information. Like other subjects, environmental science has its own dedicated academic wing as well as laboratories. Students can’t ask for more!
4. Imperial College, U.K.
   Imperial College, London, sits in the heart and soul of civilization. It is the centre of a lot research being done in the UK. Environmental Science is treated as a practical subject, rather than a theoretical one, as it is in many universities. This approach allows for more practical solutions and more innovation, which in turn leads to more real-world applications. Imperial College is the right place for you if you want to be active in your field and stimulate others.
5. University of Cambridge, U.K.
   The number of books published by this university and its reputation in academia are enough to convince anyone about the importance of the work being done there. The University of Cambridge is an institution that has been dedicated to the environment for over a century. It is a great option for students who are interested in research. There are many grants and aids available for fellows. Alumni and international corporations also donate to the cause. Although it is not easy to get into Cambridge, once you do, the joy of working for the cause will be unlike anything you have ever felt.
6. University of Copenhagen, Denmark
   The University of Copenhagen has been a leader in Denmark’s efforts to combat climate change. It is a leader in research in Denmark and has been responsible for many landmark legislative changes (pertaining to the environment and industrial regulations). The university’s scholars do not seek financial success, but to improve the quality of life for the citizens. The university’s focus is not on inventions and patents of discovery, but on redefining people’s lives so that rapid industrialization has a minimal environmental impact. This research is cited in papers all over the world.
