Environmental Science Ph.D. Program


Jackson State University (JSU) is the urban University of Mississippi and is the sole institution in the State that offers an Environmental Science Ph.D. Program.
Recognizing the need for a strong preparation in facing present and future environmental Challenges, the School of Science and Technology at JSU is taking an innovative approach to environmental science education, one that integrates academic training, research and practical experience into a cohesive program of study focused on the full range of environmental problems that plague our communities, our State, our Nation and our Planet.

The Environmental Science Ph.D. Program started in Fall 1992 as a new interdisciplinary program based upon the integration of natural and applied science.

Many units of the School of Science and Technology including the Biology; Chemistry; Computer Science; Mathematics; Physics, Atmospheric Sciences and General Sciences; and Technology departments contribute to the development of this program and to successful matriculation and graduation of the enrolled students.
