About the course

Wild populations cannot be managed without an understanding of how ecological, human, social, economic, political and behavioral considerations interact in the natural world. Fisheries and wildlife students learn about the interactions between and among the natural and social sciences.The Fisheries and Wildlife undergraduate major focuses on interactions between humans and the natural world through courses that link three foundational topics: (1) the ecology of Earth?s ecosystems and their animal populations, (2) the diversity of ways in which people use and value natural resources, and (3) the application of management techniques, informed by scientific understanding and guided by human goals and values, to meet global challenges threatening the sustainability of Earth?s ecosystems and their animal populations. The program of study includes course work in the life sciences, social sciences, and field, lab and analytic techniques, it also includes an experiential learning component, such as study abroad and/or professional internships. Our students value the relatively small class sizes and dedicated faculty instructors. This program prepares students with interests in the life sciences, social sciences, and environmental policy for rewarding careers in fisheries, wildlife, or water quality management, conservation biology, animal health, and applied ecology. Our graduates most typically find employment with state and federal natural resource agencies, non-profit environmental organizations, private companies and consulting firms, as well as universities and colleges.
