About the Program

A fisheries and wildlife degree in the School of Natural Resources is based on a program of study that includes communications, quantitative skills and basic courses in physical and social sciences. Core classes in biology and ecology and specialized courses that feature animal populations and their aquatic and terrestrial environments enhance the learning experience. Some areas of study include wildlife ecology, water quality, habitat management, fishery science and conservation biology.

Degrees

Master of Science and PhD degrees in Fisheries & Wildlife Sciences are offered. And graduate certificates in conservation biology and geographic information systems (GIS) are available to students who elect to take courses beyond those required for the graduate degree.
