<p>If you are interested in EPA opportunities, take a look at [Find</a> Jobs | EPA Careers | US EPA](<a href=“http://www.epa.gov/ohr/careers/search.html]Find”>http://www.epa.gov/ohr/careers/search.html) and see what major(s) each listing prefers/requires.</p>
<p>For differences between specific Engineering majors, I suggest the Engineering forum.</p>
<p>Environmental science is a pretty broad phrase and there’s a number of potential career paths coming out of it, depending on what you choose to focus on. If you’re interested in ecosystem interactions, you could work for a land management agency as part of a team that is charged with maintaining and improving the environmental quality of national forests, parks, wildlife refuges and other public lands.</p>
