This video has been immensely helpful - thank you very much. I already have a BA in a different field (Social Work), but lately, the thought of switching to an environmental career has been chasing me. I still have tons of considering to do, but this was a very good starting point, thank you.
Thank you Kristina. As a 20 year old BA Geographer entering 3rd year, this is incredibly helpful. I would like to be an environmental economist, town planner or consultant (I live in the UK). I don't have a background in law or economics, so I will see. Doing a dissertation on public transport, with a town planning and policy role in mind.
Depends what u wanna do. If you wanna be out in the field I’d say environmental health specialist or environmental health & safety. If you want something in office based then perhaps environmental planner or environmental compliance specialist.
I might want to become an “Eco- Blogger.” When I did my Personal Branding Assignment. There is a genre called “Green Blogging.” I made a rebuttal of why I don’t like the term Green Blogger because it focuses on the personal experiences of sustainable living of an individual but neglects eco- politics, environmental issues, and ignores the educational/ professional experiences of non- professionals/ professionals. So I prefer Eco- Blogger as a term instead because in my opinion, it would include those areas.
I have a tourism management major with a concentration in environmental sustainability and I am just having a heck of a time trying to find a related job.
Hey! Im a senior at WWU in Bellingham WA, perusing an undergraduate in environmental studies. This video helped me get a few ideas of what I could do when I graduate. Thank you :)
I’m enrolled in a Natural resources environmental technology program starting this September at a college here in Nova Scotia, Canada. I’m having second thoughts about it. I know I like environmental studies, biology, and wildlife, but I want a job where I get to pick and choose when I’m out in the field, and something that won’t take me too far from Halifax. I’m getting this feeling with the program I’m enrolled in that I’ll be a glorified labourer in the forest and nothing more.
I've been wathing some of your career videos to help me make my final decision regarding which field of work inside biology I'll enter, and if possible, I'd love to see some content regarding acoustic ecology/soundscape ecology, because that's what I'm most interested in! thank you so much for the great content!
Awesome video, I've started making videos and really take inspiration from all of your content. Love how down to earth you are in your videos and can't wait to see more!
I graduated with a BS in social work and after 2 years in rehabilitation counseling I love the idea of urban planning and advocacy. I didn't know there were degrees specifically for that but should I be considering going back to school ?
The good news is that you already have a bachelor's degree. If this is truly the route you want to take, I think going back to school would be a great option if you feel it is financially accessible. If you want to get a second bachelor's, it should only take you a couple years to do so if you are smart and find a school that accepts your first bachelor's as generals. Otherwise, a master's degree will give you a leg up on others. You might need to take some prerequisites before (take at a community college to save money). I think social work might actually put you at an advantage for going into this program. Going back to school doesn't always have to be the answer if you have good connections, best of luck!
Hi Kristina, I am currently career transitioning and since I have only BA Business Management and have been within customer service for the last years, I thought a good way to start my transition is as Events Coordinator/ Assistant in a wildlife conservation company. Now, after watching your video I have some more options to consider, thank you! If you have any further advise I would appreciate it!
Finding a job for an BS in Environmental Science is rough. Even though I studied a thorough GIS and have my OSHA certificate experience of 10+ years is often needed. Further, which makes this more excruciating is the job availability, which is slim itself. No internships available, really hanging by a thread here. Please any advice?
Hello, Mizaz Dominguez, I was once totally stood where you are. I graduated with a BS in EnSci with a bit of experience in BioChem lab experiences (my internship), but no OSHA certificate (so I think it’s great that you got one). Graduated in 2020 right when COVID hit the US really bad. And I just got hired in May 2021. I started applying jobs months before grad, So it took me a whole year to finally get hire as a lab technician in an environmental consultant company here in NYC. It’s true that many job ask for work experience, but many count your experiences from school work or lab and knowledge you learnt too. So, I what I did was, I had my friend and professor helped to represent those knowledge and experiences in a better way like I really own them. I had many rejections and a couple of interviews for different positions. If I had learnt anything from the process till I got hired, they are apply jobs, follow back, and follow through. Dun give up tho. In case if you have further questions or need more help, I am more than happy to response and help. gusnadi.tjong@gmail.com
Check this link guys! These are a compilation of a few topics that my professor showed through PowerPoint Presentation about the subject Terrestrial Ecology: pin.it/3eNEEA6 Don't forget to follow me for more uploads. Thanks!
Another is an Environmental Specialist for state or local governments. Some do more of an environmental scientist role other are food, septic, well, facilities inspectors
I initially wanted to go to uni to do architecture. I need a bachelors first, since my school only offers it at a masters level, and I chose to do a bachelor in ecology :) Depending on how things go, I might still pursue architecture, but I had also noticed that my school offers a masters in landscape architecture. So now I am at a crossroads: do I pursue the MArch, with me ecology knowledge, and hope that it will also land me some landscape work as well as buildings etc. or do I just pursue landscape architecture?
You could absolutely pair those up by creating eco friendly buildings! Check out LEED certification for buildings and what goes into it. People to craft Green Roofs is definitely needed too.
Great Video! Some very useful information. Though I couldn't work out why the time stamp kept sending me to the wrong place - turns out writing 00.00-00.52 is two timestamps - so you have to click on the left side but not the right 🤣
Is it true that wildlife biologists spend a majority of their time in an office in front of a computer rather than out in the field? Love your videos! So helpful to me since I found your channel.
It depends on your job, some wildlife biologists only go into the field a few weeks out of the year and the rest is in the office, and some (like wildlife field techs) go out almost every day! One of the great things about this job is you can only apply to roles that have a strong field component or office component - depending on your lifestyle and interests
I've done Bachelor degree in Environmental Engineering and have four years of experience in this fields. What certification and short courses you would recommend to excel in this career?
Hello mam I'm your new subscriber because this is the exact channel I was looking for 😊 and mam I have to ask that after msc wildlife biology degree can we become a wildlife biologist?
Hello 👋🏻 may you do a video explaining the easier wildlife biology jobs or if you have done one already, may you please send me the link ? Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Hi dear Kristina I have a PhD in environmental law. I'm working as a lawyer in Iran. I'm searching for a job in other countries. Please help and guide me ❤
Could I get a job as an environmental justice advocate with a degree in environmental horticulture? I want to make a difference and work outdoors without going into science
This video has been immensely helpful - thank you very much.
I already have a BA in a different field (Social Work), but lately, the thought of switching to an environmental career has been chasing me. I still have tons of considering to do, but this was a very good starting point, thank you.
Any updates ? Ive been working as a rehab counselor and just got here lol
Did you end up changing? I’m 23 and trying to figure out my career path in an environmental field
@@natashamartinez937 me too, still in void, no best ideas
@@natashamartinez937 did you end up figuring anything out because I am in the same situation lol
2 years later I’m in the same boat! Did any follow through with their goals of getting into an environmental job? Would be incredibly helpful!
I have my BA in psychology and I’ve been trying to find a way to pivot in the environmental realm! Thank you for the great ideas!

Depends what u wanna do. If you wanna be out in the field I’d say environmental health specialist or environmental health & safety. If you want something in office based then perhaps environmental planner or environmental compliance specialist.

how do you like the degree? would you say you preferred it over env science?
I’m enrolled in a Natural resources environmental technology program starting this September at a college here in Nova Scotia, Canada. I’m having second thoughts about it.

Looking for the same. Help me suggest,when u are at it getting ur best
I really wanted to work in the environment-related jobs, but never got the chance even as a volunteer.

OMG. This video is a life-saver. You just made it all click for me. Thank you!
I just found your channel, hopefully you are inspired soon to continue making videos. Thank you for the catalog you have created up to this point.

Hi! You could try environmental architect if that suits your fancy. I’m not too familiar with this field, but good luck!! x
You could absolutely pair those up by creating eco friendly buildings! Check out LEED certification for buildings and what goes into it. People to craft Green Roofs is definitely needed too.
