- Mission
The department has a broad but unified mission: to provide quality instruction to our students, conduct top-quality research in the broad field of natural resources management, and offer outstanding service to the public at large. Our mission is accomplished by conducting state-of-the-art research in range, wildlife, and fisheries sciences and by disseminating this information to our students and community. The interests of our faculty span a wide range of topics and multiple levels of ecological organization, a diversity that helps produce a cohesive understanding and a detailed appreciation of fundamental ecological processes and the roles humans play in them.
- Current research interests
Four major areas of scholarship are represented in the research of the department's faculty: (1) range management, (2) wildlife management, (3) fisheries management, and (4) conservation biology. These areas of scholarship often overlap, and we collaboratively work to explore the linkages among them. Faculty from other departments often add to the strength of these programs.
