Need info about environmental science education

AI Thread Summary
Environmental science education encompasses a broad range of topics, primarily focusing on Earth sciences, including geology, climate, the water cycle, and atmospheric studies, along with elements of biology and chemistry. Students with a bachelor's degree in mathematics can pursue this field, but admission to master's programs may vary by institution. Some schools may require additional undergraduate coursework to address any gaps in knowledge, while others may accept students directly based on their academic performance and recommendations. Generally, the mathematical requirements in environmental science are not overly complex, emphasizing scientific understanding over advanced math skills.

It depends on the school and the exact course, but everyone publishes their curricula so look around. Basically it's a lot of Earth science, so geology, climate, water cycle and all that jazz, assorted bio and chem, stuff about the atmosphere, etc.

If you want to get a masters in it, it'll depend on the school. Assuming you've got good grades/recs/etc., some will require you to take undergrad courses to fill in blanks, some won't let you in, same as any other "I want to major in x with y" situation. The math in Earth science generally doesn't get too complex, it's mostly just knowing the science.
 
I was looking through the profiles on AMS (American Mathematical Society)'s website, and saw a math major there with a PhD in Environmental Science, so it's definitely possible.
 

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...

Thread 'What should I do if I found a paper with same result as mine?'

Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
