      I’ve had B.A in Environmental science and haven’t found work in my field. Everyone either wants a masters degree or 2 plus years experience in the field doing phase 1 and 2 assessments that they don’t teach you in school. Best advice choose a special area want to work in and get degree in that such as biology, geology, environmental or civil engineering and make sure you network in college with company’s and don’t trust your advisors BS unless they have worked specifically in that field prior to taking a university job.

      Her womanhood isn't that relevant....? Her being smart and strong would make you think the job is hard unless you think you have those qualities. You were really just sneaking in that she was a woman and adding some positive adjectives. You're really defining YOURSELF as a "woman" by caring so much about the label.

Also, I am the project manager from start to finish: determining consulting parties based on the site location, placing public notice ads, preliminary research for cultural and natural resources, and kicking off the process with the FCC (for telecommunications projects). There's a lot of milestone management to keep the project on schedule.

      Blackpink Lisa there’s not much of a big difference, environmental science is a bit more broad of a subject field and includes more non technical info.

    I'm in environmental studies and I been having difficulty really finding any information on job outlook and information on what jobs are in demand. I have always been more interested in the sociological aspect of environmentalism so that's why I went for environmental studies but I do worry about the job market and I want to be prepared to know what my options are and what jobs are focused in that area. Could you do a video just about non-science environmental positions?

    • @kristina_lynn
      @kristina_lynn  4 года назад +18

      Definitely a video about that is on the list! In the meantime, the best way to see what kind of jobs are available in that field is to look at job postings now. Pretend you are a new grad and start browsing job forums and see what's out there. I think not enough college/hs students do this and it can be the best way to gauge job outlook. Just give it a few months because some jobs don't get posted daily but will get posted after a few weeks.

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.

    @environmentalscienceanddis1893 4 года назад

    Environmental science is the academic field that takes physical, biological and chemical sciences to study the environment and discover solutions to environmental problems. Sciences used in environmental science include geography, zoology, physics, ecology, oceanology, and geology. Environmental science also branches out into environmental studies and environmental engineering. It provides an integrated and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental problems.

    @dpc0809 2 года назад

    It's a daunting task but it's great for every high school student to do as much research as possible into their potential careers. They need to look into what they want to do, how difficult it is to get a job in their field, where they want to live, how much they want to earn, and what the stability and upward earning potential of the job is. It's true that you will never work a day in your life if you love what you do but earning more helps pay off the student loan, car, living, and entertainment debts easier.

    One thing that has always drove me crazy is zoo jobs ask you to have, say two years, of experience for an entry level job 😤. Thankfully I already do volunteer work/student animal technician at my university. But it’s still very dumb imo to ask for years of experience for entry level positions that don’t even pay that well starting out.

      @kristina_lynn  5 лет назад +2

      It’s not just zoos, most wildlife jobs do that! I didn’t get an “entry level” wildlife job until I had 2-3 years of experience 🙄 that’s why I’m always encouraging people to do internships and volunteer work in university, so you can rack up some of that experience while in school and actually have a shot at those entry level jobs on graduation.

    im in highschool and very interested in becoming a wildlife biologist! not many schools in the country i live in offer ecology, the ones that do offer are very far away :(( so would choosing an environmental science course for college still let me become a wildlife biologist?? thank you for these videos they're really encouraging and informational !

    Thanks for this! As someone who is currently going after their Environmental Science degree but not exactly sure which route to take with it this was pretty helpful. Is it common for people to wear many different hats in their career at certain times? Say, few years as a research tech, few years as a animal caretaker, few years as a project manager, etc..etc? Or would it behoove me to focus all of my energy into one specified area? Also, would love to see your AUS/NZ travel vlog if you decide to do so!

      I think it is common to do different things out of necessity. Sometimes there’s only a few related jobs available so you have to get good at spinning your experience to fit many different roles. It’s easier if you specialize in one thing to get a job in that thing, but many times job scarcity doesn’t allow for that! I would look at becoming a bit more of a generalist if I was you and get good at spinning your experience to fit multiple niches.

    Thank you for getting back with me. From your reply, I like environmental outreach and developing policy. Even public policy if possible but, as I said I have minimal college education. Is there any hope? Your suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

    Hi Kristina! I'm currently studying biology in university and I was wondering some things about your job: - If you work for companies, which are profit-minded, don't they want to hear only good news? (Like; 'there are no special species in the building area' etc.).
    - Is the most money still being made through fossil fuel companies? Since I rather not make money through an industry that is one of the main drivers of climate change (and are notorious for their lack in care or even corruption)
    Thank you for your video!

    • @kristina_lynn
      @kristina_lynn  5 лет назад

      1. Yes when I worked in consulting they sure did want good news, doesn’t mean they got it though 😉 In Alberta as a biologist you had a professional license that required you to operate with integrity and be unbiased. Not everyone worked like that but integrity and honest reporting were my values. That’s a really good question.
      2. By not working for any companies in any way related for fossil fuels you’re cutting off a ton of your options but it’s still possible! Also take into account that we need people like you with high morals accurately reporting the impacts of oil and gas developments and helping the environment in a Boots on the ground Way! But I currently work out of the oil and gas industry since I moved to British Columbia. There are opportunities in government and the non profit world that might be more in line with your ethics :)

    • @kristina_lynn
      @kristina_lynn  5 лет назад +1

      Not a huge difference but generally environmental science is more technical and environmental studies can be more of the philosophy/politics side of things. Generally I would go for an environmental science major to be a biologist!

    I have had the privilege of serving for AmeriCorps, nonprofits, local, state, and federal agencies in varying aspects of environmental conservation and restoration. My next steps will be to take those awesome field experiences, and to hopefully use them to be a better student/eventual professional within my field when it comes time to analyze or advocate for better policies regarding our environment. I haven't yet decided on whether I want to focus my efforts in the public or the private sectors though, but I do know that I would love a degree that offered the mobility to try my hand in both to see where I fit best. I am torn between Environmental Studies and Government, however. I can't tell whether it would make more sense to major in ES, then minor in Gov., or vice versa. I should also add that I will certainly be pursing a degree in environmental law as well. I would love to be able to use this time before law school to gain applicable experience and internships along the way, so my concern is currently with making the wrong undergraduate decision. The end goal is to work in Environmental Planning, Lobbying, Consulting, or some form of Policy Analysis. The point of the law degree for me is both to hone the skills necessary to be the best that I can be within any of those roles. I know that in the competitive markets of today, offering value is huge. I figured a law degree coupled with great networking, letters of rec, internships, and more volunteerism plus my 5 years of conservation experience would be above and beyond. I suppose that is why I am obsessed with making the right choice -- I can't tell which major would give me the proper foundation for performing the duties of any of those positions properly. Do you have any advice/thoughts on this?

    • @kristina_lynn
      @kristina_lynn  4 года назад +1

      It's hard to say. With my experience in government, "jack of all trades" folks are harder to find a place for than people who are certified/qualified in at least one thing: either law or environment. It's hard to be a specialist in the environment without a degree focusing on enviro sci, and it's hard to be a law specialist or lawyer without law credentials. However, you can be an environmental scientist that works closely with policy, or a lawyer/policy analyst with a familiarity with environmental science. I know that's not a great answer but just from what you're saying it sounds like you're leaning towards law so I would focus on environmental studies/policy rather than technical science.

      @adeshemsu 4 года назад +1

      @@kristina_lynn Thank you! This actually was a helpful answer, and makes a lot of sense. That part about being a "master of none" is great because that too was a concern of mine. At the end of the day, it is the policy/law side that appeals more to my personality, interests, and skill sets so that is where I will focus my energy. Much appreciated!
