Agent of Change
There are so many new discoveries that are changing the way humans interact with the world. Our incredible Sustainable Science specialization program puts you right in the center of this change.
This program focuses on the challenge of making fewer toxic and waste-producing outcomes in the environment. To do that, you’ll study the relationships between science, technology and the world.
Lab Time
In the Sustainable Science program, you’ll take a lot of sciences and the labs that go with them, such as biology, chemistry and ecology. The program itself takes four semesters (two years).
You’ll work with an RCC counselor in advance to set your schedule, so that when you’re ready to transfer, along with the sciences, you will have taken the core classes as well, like English, math, history and others.
