Working in these fields...

Environmentally focused opportunities are found in industries as diverse as law, medicine and public health, business, teaching, writing, environmental management and conservation, energy production and exploration, and agribusiness.

Tremendous focus has now been placed on tapping alternative energy resources, and the result will be an increase in the types of entry-level energy career opportunities. One of the broadest areas of work within energy is consulting, which includes analysis on energy markets, geopolitics, industry trends, investment evaluation, technical delivery and accessibility issues, and strategy. Consultants help decision makers anticipate the future of energy supply and demand, determine the most appropriate way to build around protected wetlands and sensitive ecosystems, and devise successful plans in the face of rapid changes and uncertainty.
