Passion for the outdoors makes students a great candidate for a career in natural resources. This exciting program brings together natural resources, technology, and the environment in an agricultural context. Understand the interconnection between our water and the land. Students learn how to protect, manage, sustain and conserve natural habitats for wildlife and humans.

With Land and Water Management, students will often be out in the field, examining key features of the prairie agro-ecological landscape. Become skilled at monitoring and evaluating the quality of rural land and water resources, and at managing activities so that those resources are used sustainably. Students will use environmental monitoring equipment to study water, land, and air conditions.

Consider a career as a water manager, habitat specialist, or environmental technician. Students may also find a position in research, management, consulting, and administration of sustainable land-use practices. If students like working with science and are concerned about the environment and the quality of our natural resources, Land and Water Management is perfect for you!
