is earned by fulfilling requirements prescribed by the State of

agreement. In addition to completing the Environmental Sciences
major, the requirements for the Comprehensive Science teaching certificate
include psychology, physics, and several courses in education with
the last semester of the senior year devoted to the student-teaching
block.
