Missouri boasts 80 state parks, 5,000 caves, and over 1.5 million acres of national forest, so it's hardly surprising groups are working fervently to preserve the state's natural resources, especially streams, wetlands, forests, and air quality.

All this conservation is good news for aspiring environmentalists - job opportunities will be plentiful through 2012. Environmental engineers, for example, can look forward to increases in openings of nearly 27%.

Introduction: The distance-learning program in Coastal Zone Management at Nova Southeastern University’s Oceanographic Center provides a timely, credible forum for learning about key national and international issues and case studies related to the ecology and management of the coastal and marine environment, including ongoing research at the Oceanographic Center. The flexible distance format makes it ideal for adult learners, including working professionals and college graduates in a variety of related fields. Courses may be taken individually for general interest, undergraduate or graduate credit. We offer a full online MS in Coastal Zone Management and a 4-course Graduate Certificate in Coastal Studies. Our distance MS in Education with Specialization in Environmental Education is available through the National Graduate Teacher Education online program. The “Study Abroad” program provides a jointly-taught MS in Marine Biology with a field station of the University of London.
