Graduates of the TSE are career-ready and well-positioned to become leaders in environmental research, protection and policy, as well as in emerging fields, such as ecological restoration (bringing polluted or degraded ecosystems back to health), and carbon management (finding ways to reduce our impact on the climate).
Our graduates pursue careers in the private sector (employed by companies in the forestry and other resource industries and in environmental consulting firms); the public sector (working for international, federal, provincial, regional and municipal agencies); and with a variety of non-profit organizations, including highly respected environmental agencies. Some take their Trent education down unexpected paths, transitioning to careers in architecture, law and medicine.
