• The major in Wildland Conservation and Recreation (a revised version of the existing BSc NRM Outdoor Recreation and Conservation) focuses on portions of the landscape where conservation values, including recreation and aesthetic values, are the priority land use activities, and where these activities intersect with other values, priorities, and uses. 
  • Topics include the promotion of and advocacy for conservation, integrated management of legally designated parks and protected areas, conservation area design, as well as human activities across those areas, including recreation, ecotourism and the associated positive and negative impacts on ecological integrity. 
  • Students will develop the skills necessary to identify, plan, monitor, and manage conservation values within the parks, recreation, and tourism sectors.
