Environmental Studies Jobs Abroad

Do you hate the environment? Do you wish polar bears would just hurry up and die already? Do you delight in the uptick of Amazonian trees cut down daily? Then working abroad in environmental studies is probably not the field for you. But, if your idea of a good time is snuggling up with a nice flower, working in park services, field ecology, public policy, or plant and animal conservation, a job in environmental studies will be a perfect fit. Working abroad in environmental studies will give you an intimate look at how other countries and cultures are working to preserve this big blue ball of water we call home.

A Guide to Environmental Studies Jobs Abroad

Why Work Abroad

If you want to save the world, you’ve got to see the world! Environmental science jobs abroad will finally give you the opportunity to go out and save the world like the superhero you are. You’ll be able to fully immerse in your host-country’s culture and take a look at environmental issues from a new perspective, giving you the tools needed to come up with creative solutions. 

Working in environmental studies abroad will also give you a better understanding of the connection between social justice, economic development, and environmental sustainability. You might be working in a remote rainforest or working at an environmental consulting firm in a big city, but both placements are equally important parts of the field.

Your environmental work abroad will obviously introduce you to an international network, but it will also help you build cross-cultural communication skills and make a direct impact on local communities around the world too.

Frequently Asked Questions

You have two main options when searching for environmental studies jobs. First, consult the Career Office of your home university for possible opportunities if you’re a fresh graduate. If you’re looking to work abroad, use an online job platform to compare offers from companies all over the world.

Generally speaking, a career in environmental science is perfect if you’re passionate about contributing to the overall well-being of our planet. When it comes to salary, some of the highest-paying jobs are environmental health and safety officer, environmental specialist, sustainability consultant, and geologist.

From the polar ice caps of Antarctica to the dense jungles of Ecuador, you can find environmental studies jobs worldwide. As an environmentally conscious nation, Denmark offers both a meaningful and financially rewarding job. Singapore has earned the reputation “Cleanest City” in the world, making it an ideal location for an environmental consultant.

The need for a visa when working in environmental science abroad depends on your nationality and the host country. Find out which legal documents are required by getting in touch with the Embassy or Consulate in your country.
