The U.S. Department of Labor has projected that during this decade, employment in the field of “environmental scientists and specialists” will increase by 25 percent, far greater than the national average for employment growth in general. The Washington, D.C., area is first in the nation for number of people employed in this field, while the Baltimore-Towson area ranks in the 97th percentile. It’s the study of people’s interactions with their environment that employs a multifaceted, cross-disciplinary approach.
