<p>Next year I am planning on attending University of Illinois UC as a transfer sophomore student. I am very passionate about pursuing a degree that will be working to fix environmental problems. </p>
<p>At UIUC there is an environmental science major in the ACES (Agricultural Consumer and Environmental Science) Department. The program is pretty strong from reviewing the required courses. </p>
<p>As I am sure people on the engineering forum know, UIUC has very high regarded Engineering Majors. In the Engineering department the closest thing to an Environmental Engineering is the Civil and Environmental Engineering Major. </p>
<p>I don't know if it is too late to switch majors to this. I am currently enrolling in the ACES deptartment next fall. </p>
<p>Anyone tell me the pros cons of both and the different job opportunities and advice on which to go into. even though im skeptical about how much good information i will get haha from a college forum besides high school and college kids perceptions but those are welcome too. haha THANKS!!!</p>
