Overview

The Environmental Science and Technology graduate program at University of Maryland is guided by strong faculty recognized for their research and teaching excellence and committed to providing a high quality experience of education and mentoring for our graduate students.

The ENST faculty are committed to the principle that graduate education at both the M.S. and Ph.D. level requires a committment to research. Graduate students, therefore, will pursue a research project under the tutelage of their advisor and advisory committee. Prospective students are encouraged to identify one or more potential faculty advisors with whom they share areas of research interest.

Facilities and Special Resources

The Department has many well-equipped laboratories designed to carry out basic and applied research in Soil and Watershed Sciences, Ecological Technology Design, Wetland Science, and Ecosystem Health and Natural Resources Management. Laboratories are located on the College Park campus in H.J. Patterson Hall and the ANSC/AGEN Building. Greenhouse facilities are available on campus and a statewide network of research and education centers as well as our proximity to Chesapeake Bay provide access to a wide range of environmental conditions for research. Students have access to computer resources in the department and a comprehensive computer center located on campus.
