Pre-Environmental Science and Foresty

These programs are designed for those students who ultimately desire a B.S. degree in the environmental sciences and/or forestry from the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) - an upper division graduate center.

After the first two years of study at Adirondack Community College, transfers to ESF may apply to a variety of programs at Syracuse which include the biological sciences (botany and forest pathology, entomology, zoology, wildlife biology, silics, pest management); chemistry (natural and synthetic polymers, biochemistry and natural products, environmental); forest engineering; paper science and engineering; wood products and engineering; forestry (resource management, forest resource science, management science, environmental education and communications, urban forestry, world forestry, applied resource management); landscape architecture; and environmental studies.

Students planning to transfer should follow the program requirements in consultationwith our Pre-Environmental Science and Forestry campus advised for selection of electives which vary according to the curriculum at ESF. The pre-ESF advisor will also assist students in selecting appropriate general education courses which will satisfy ACC's graduation requiements and ESF's general education transfer requirements.

Sucessful graduates of Adirondack Community College's Pre-Environmental Science and Forestry Cooperative Transfer Program generally gain admission to the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry with full junior clas status.
