Difference Between College And University


Moving from college to university can be a daunting prospect. The university student life is different. For some it will be the first time you've really experienced independent living, whether that means you're living away from home or not. With this in mind we thought it would be helpful if we gave you some guidance about making the transition from FE and sixth form to university. The major difference between college and university is that you will be expected to rely less on the teaching staff and more on yourself. This means you must take full responsibility for your study. Although tutors and lecturers are there to help you, the emphasis is on them getting you to understand a subject for yourself. This means that you'll have to become very good at managing your time. While it's likely that you will have fewer classes and lectures to attend than you do at FE or sixth form, this does NOT mean you'll have less work. There is an expectation at

university that you will be undertaking a lot of individual study and background reading in the time when you are not in classes or lectures, and it's important that you take this on board from the start. At university you'll often be given long periods of time to complete assignments, sometimes as much as 12 weeks. Try not to fall into the trap of leaving assignments to the last minute or simply forgetting about them until the week before they're due to be handed in. The idea behind being given this amount of time is to enable you to read up on the subject, research and then have plenty of time to draft and redraft the assignment until you're happy with it. Last minute panics are never fun, so try and avoid them! When the responsibility for managing your time falls to you, you need to find the right balance between work, study and socialising. This can be difficult but it's important. While you should be studying hard, you'll need to take a break from time to time. Socialising is an important part of student life - meeting new people and making new friends will help you settle in to your new student life, so make some time for it!

Why I Choose Environmental Sciences!!


Environmental science is a broad field that covers many disciplines in the sciences, such as biology and chemistry. People may choose an environmental science major for a variety of reasons. The fact that this field is so broad attracts many people; it involves biology, chemistry, geology, technology, and many other sciences. It is even linked to social sciences, as resource management and use are very important parts of many environmental science careers. Some individuals choose an environmental science major out of a genuine desire to help the environment as issues such as global warming, pollution, and low fresh water supply threaten both people and the environment. Pollution, its sources, and its prevention take up a significant part of the focus of many environmental scientists. A student may choose an environmental science major for this reason. An environmental scientist focusing on pollution will often study its effects and work to come up with new, cleaner ways to conduct everyday tasks. Many also work to find cleaner ways to conduct industry and manufacturing which is often notoriously harsh on the environment. Often, people with environmental science majors end up doing advocacy work to try to move those in positions of influence to curb activities that are harmful to the environment.

Energy and resource use are major aspects of the studies and work of those who choose environmental science majors. These topics branch out into very diverse fields, as they both involve a good deal of physical and social science. The world is full of nonrenewable resources, such as fossil fuels, and an alternative energy source will eventually be necessary to provide energy. There are many other natural resources used in modern industry that are severely limited; alternatives must be found or massive changes must be made if these resources are to be preserved. Environmental scientists are often the ones in charge of making the decisions that govern the use of such limited resources and forms of energy.

An environmental science major can bring about many different job opportunities with many different groups and organizations. The government hires environmental scientists in a variety of areas from forestry and land management to public health and safety. Many nonprofit organizations interested in resource preservation and other environmental concerns also hire environmental scientists to conduct research and studies to quantify the organization's claims. Different job opportunities for an environmental science major range from teaching science in school to disposing of hazardous waste in a safe way that has minimal influence on the environment. Even the United States military hires environmental scientists for environmental health jobs, which relate to the effects that the environment has on human health.
