Natural Resources Management, Associate of Science
The Natural Resources Management program provides an introduction for those interested in outdoor-related careers managing rangeland, fisheries, and waterways. The Natural Resources Management AS allows students to choose from three separate pathways that emphasizes coursework in these areas, allowing them to develop job-specific skills. The Natural Resources Management AAS focuses on developing hands-on skills that are directly relatable to positions that are in demand. Employment can be found locally, and regionally, with the completion of either associate degree but the Natural Resource Management AS will prepare students to transfer for more advanced degrees.
