Natural Resource Management degrees teach students how to create, implement, and maintain sustainable solutions, which preserve natural resources like land, water, minerals, or vegetation. Students learn how the interactions between humans and natural landscapes impact current and future generations. Classes offered by universities include Land Use Planning, Water Management, and Biodiversity Conservation. This program is the stewardship of forested public and private landscapes, to create a balanced approach to sustainable ecosystem management about many of the social, economic, and environmental challenges which face us now and in the future. Our Faculty prepares you to take an active role, either as a forester or an environmental manager, in the sustainability of Canada’s most important resources. You will follow a common curriculum for the first two years of your program, providing you with a background in the biological, social, and operational fundamentals of forestry, and its relationship to our ecosystems. After two years, you will choose to complete either the Honours Bachelor of Science in Forestry or the Honours Bachelor of Environmental Management.
