About Msc Environmental Science in Thompson Rivers University

The TRU Master of Science in Environmental Science provides an integrative, multi-disciplinary approach to the study of the environment.

The environment is a complex of biological, geological, physical, chemical, social and cultural factors that interact to influence the life of an individual or community. Our environment is threatened by global issues, such as overpopulation, climate change and habitat fragmentation. Many of these are issues caused by humans, and in turn they are threatening the well being of humans. The problems we face today are not solvable by science alone, but by an equal discovery and knowledge of culture, sociology, economics, politics and ethics.

Thompson Rivers University is ideally located to study environmental issues because of its proximity to a wide variety of diverse regional ecosystems. Kamloops is a city of about 90,000 people centred in the southern interior of British Columbia. The Thompson/Okanagan region and neighbouring Cariboo Plateau provide rare native grassland ecosystems, freshwater wetlands, lakes and rivers, and a rich diversity of forested ecosystems, all within easy access of TRU, as well as mountain and ocean ecosystems within a few hours' drive. The location of the university also provides collaborative potential with a number of neighbouring institutions and agencies, such as BC Ministry of Forests and Range, Agriculture Canada Research Station, BC Ministry of Environment, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, BC Grassland Conservation Council and Ducks Unlimited Canada.

Bachelors: No specific cutoff mentioned

  • Normally for admission to the program applicants must have achieved a grade-point average (GPA) of at least 3.33 on the TRU evaluation scale over the last two years of undergraduate studies
  • If individuals with lower GPAs wish to have an application considered, they should include in their cover letter an argument detailing exceptional circumstances (e.g. the accumulation of additional knowledge or experience that will compensate for the lower undergraduate marks)
