Science & Engineering: Natural Resources Pathway

If you’re interested in protecting wildlife habitats and the environment while meeting the evergrowing demand for clean water, outdoor recreation, and scenic beauty, then studying natural resources management is right for you. Studying natural resources will prepare you for professional opportunities in environmental monitoring, such as endangered species and wetland delineation, restoration of disturbed land, and management of forested lands. Students may work for tribal, federal, state, and local land management and planning agencies or non-governmental organizations and legislative bodies concerned with land use policies and laws.
