What
Happens When You Graduate?
From
plant identification and measuring
water quality to calculating land
values and mapping trails, you'll
find that what you've learned
while earning your CNR degree will
definitely apply to the issues and
challenges you'll encounter in the
workplace.
Science
Track
Those
graduating in the Science
Track can go on to find jobs
in environmental organizations,
government agencies, and education
and recreation programs.
Graduates with a CNR degree are
needed for consulting firms that
conduct environmental analyses
through field data collection and
laboratory analysis.
Government and private property
owners also need managers for
their lands, parks, and natural
resources. Graduates may
also find positions doing
environmental monitoring,
regulation, landscape and tree
care, or environmental
restoration. With a strong
scientific and technical
background in natural resources, you'll
also have a strong basis for
continuing to graduate school in a
wide range of fields like
conservation biology, forest
management, environmental law, and
ecology.
Policy
Track
Graduates
of the Policy
Track will also be
well-equipped for jobs in
environmental organizations,
government agencies, education and
recreation programs. Natural
resource policy specialists are
needed by public planning
departments, consulting firms,
environmental non-profits, and
natural resource agencies.
On the job, graduates may work in
environmental preservation, public
policy analysis and policy-making,
natural resource management, city
planning, or resource economic
analysis. Your broad
background in government,
economics, and policy will make
you an attractive candidate for
graduate school in many fields
including natural resource policy,
environmental economics, public
administration, and environmental
law.
