Students who study in the natural resources area have an interest in the environment and promoting the appropriate use of natural resources. The Natural Resources focus area provides a broad foundation for you to pursue career opportunities in forestry, parks, recreation, agronomy, wildlife management, fisheries, environmental sciences, animal ecology, and food sciences.
