About this title

Synopsis

For students, recent college graduates, volunteers, career counselors, and anyone interested in working to protect the environment in the '90s, this is the most complete and reliable source of information available today.

Since the initial publication of The Complete Guide to Environmental Careers, the need for practical information on environmental career opportunities has grown tremendously. The New Complete Guide to Environmental Careers is an entirely revised and updated edition that provides readers with an invaluable overview of the entire spectrum of environmental career fields.

While retaining the personal narratives and breadth of information that made The Complete Guide so valuable, The New Complete Guide features a new, easy-to-read format and includes more statistical data, more information about educational paths to specific careers, new and expanded case studies, and in-depth analyses of environmental fields. Also included is general job-hunting information covering topics such as education, internships, volunteer programs, and career strategies.
