Program Innovations
Through Allegheny’s hands-on approach to environmental science and sustainability education, students don’t just learn about the environment; they are challenged and empowered to improve it.
I’m still fulfilling my goal of helping clean up watersheds, just not in a way I originally imagined — and that’s okay! Your career may branch off or take turns from where you thought you’d be, but half the fun is discovering new ways to do what you love.
