保护与修复生态科学学士

保护和恢复生态涉及保护，维护和恢复生态系统，并丰富其居民的生活。保护与恢复生态专业教给学生使用生态学原理来维护健康的生态系统并恢复由于过度使用，忽视或灾难而被破坏或消除的陆地系统，例如森林，牧场，荒地和草地。在生物科学，土壤科学，化学和数学方面打下坚实的基础，研究野生动植物的生态学，学习监测，评估，保护和恢复生态系统的技术，并了解自然资源管理政策。在顾问的指导下，学生可以为自己的选修课程制定个性化的学习计划，以满足其独特的职业目标。
Conservation and restoration ecology involves conserving, maintaining, and recovering ecological systems and enriching the lives of their inhabitants. The conservation and restoration ecology major teaches students to use ecological principles to maintain healthy ecosystems and to restore terrestrial systems, such as forests, rangelands, wildlands, and grasslands that have been damaged or eliminated through overuse, neglect, or disaster. Students will gain a solid foundation in biological sciences, soil science, chemistry, and math, study ecology of wildland plants and animals, learn techniques to monitor, assess, preserve, and restore ecosystems, and understand policy of natural resource management. With guidance from an advisor, students develop an individualized plan of study for their electives that caters to their unique career goals.
