In this program students must maintain a GPA of 3.00 to take Honors courses and remain in the Honors Program. All Honors Program students will be reviewed yearly. Any Honors students falling below a 3.00 GPA at the end of any year of study will be contacted and removed from the Honors Program. They are also required to complete the requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree. The Wildlife Ecology and Conservation major examines all non-domesticated living things and the challenges they face sharing the planet with humans. Conserving biodiversity is the underlying theme of our program, with its unique blend of lectures, labs and field trips. • Outcomes: Graduates are prepared to enter the work force as wildlife technicians, park rangers, environmental educators, or environmental policy makers. Students that wish to strengthen their skills are well positioned to pursue graduate education in fields such as wildlife conservation, ecology, or conservation biology. • Structure: Building on a solid foundation of the biological sciences, students specialize in all aspects of wildlife ecology, conservation, physiology, taxonomy, policy, and human dimensions of wildlife. We have a hands-on curriculum where students learn by doing in both field based and laboratory classes. • Uniqueness: We are the only undergraduate program in our area where students meet the educational requirements to be certified as a Wildlife Biologist by the Wildlife Society at graduation and meet the Federal requirements for a wildlife biologist position. We are the only program in the country that integrates insects into a wildlife program preparing our students with a diverse set of career building skills. We have a small and dedicated faculty that work very closely with our students on a regular basis through undergraduate research, study abroad trips, in-class field trips, and local research opportunities.
