--- PROSE FIELDS ---

ROLE SUMMARY:
Environmental Science Teachers, Postsecondary are university-level educators who teach courses in environmental science while often conducting research in areas like ecology, environmental chemistry, and sustainability. They develop curriculum, deliver lectures, evaluate student work, and contribute to scientific knowledge through research and publication. These educators serve as bridges between environmental science research and the next generation of environmental professionals.

DAY IN THE LIFE:
A typical day involves preparing and delivering lectures on topics like environmental chemistry or ecosystem dynamics, using tools like ESRI ArcGIS software for geographic analysis demonstrations. They spend time grading laboratory reports and assignments, meeting with students during office hours to discuss complex environmental concepts, and collaborating with colleagues on interdisciplinary research projects. Administrative tasks include compiling examinations, maintaining student records, and selecting textbooks and laboratory equipment for upcoming courses. Research activities involve analyzing environmental data, writing grant proposals, and preparing manuscripts for publication in professional journals.

WHO THRIVES:
Successful environmental science teachers possess strong analytical minds with high deductive and inductive reasoning abilities (level 4.1) combined with excellent communication skills including oral expression (level 5.1) and written expression (level 5.0). They demonstrate high dependability (importance 7.0) and attention to detail (importance 6.0), essential for accurate scientific instruction and research. The RIASEC profile shows strong Investigative (6.34) and Social (6.25) orientations, indicating they excel at scientific inquiry while enjoying teaching and mentoring others. These educators have intellectual curiosity and the ability to translate complex environmental concepts into accessible learning experiences for diverse student populations.

CAREER ENTRY:
Entry requires extensive education, with 52.5% holding doctoral degrees and 29.7% completing post-doctoral training according to the education distribution data. Candidates typically need a Ph.D. in environmental science, biology, chemistry, or related fields, plus teaching experience through graduate assistantships or adjunct positions. The Job Zone 5 classification indicates extensive preparation including deep knowledge in biology (level 5.4), chemistry (level 5.0), and education and training (level 5.9). Many start as teaching assistants during graduate studies before progressing to instructor or assistant professor roles.

CAREER TRAJECTORY:
Career progression typically follows the traditional academic pathway from assistant professor to associate professor to full professor, with tenure decisions based on teaching effectiveness, research productivity, and service contributions. Some advance to department chair roles, deanships, or administrative positions in environmental programs. Others may transition to government agencies like EPA, environmental consulting firms, or research institutions. The combination of teaching and research skills also opens opportunities in environmental policy, science communication, or leadership roles in sustainability initiatives at universities or corporations.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE:
Employment stands at 6,690 positions nationally with a median annual salary of $94,980 according to BLS OEWS May 2025 data, ranging from $57,780 to $164,190 for the 10th to 90th percentiles. Geographic salary variation is substantial with a 2.32x ratio between highest-paying Kentucky ($139,110) and lowest-paying Arkansas ($59,910). Educational Services employs 6,640 of these professionals, representing 99% of total employment. The field shows steady demand driven by growing environmental awareness, climate change concerns, and increasing sustainability programs at universities, though growth may be limited by higher education budget constraints.

AUTOMATION OUTLOOK:
Environmental science teaching shows low automation risk due to the high importance of human interaction in education, with Training and Teaching Others rated at importance 4.5 and level 5.6. While some administrative tasks like grading multiple-choice exams and maintaining student records may be automated, core activities like facilitating classroom discussions, interpreting complex environmental data for students, and conducting original research require human expertise and cannot be easily replicated by AI systems.
