<p>Ive found that environmental engineering has all the aspects that i wanted in a major. if i were to take this major would it be a good choice? i want to go into solar energy or environmental studies. i also would enjoy PHD studies in a field such as biology to do research into alternative energy and living organisms. </p>

<p>If you want to research alternative energy, a better option would be MechE, ChemE, or EE.</p>
<p>There are lots fo variations on environmental engineering - see old threads. “Environmental studies” sounds less technical. </p>
