Recommended Supplementary Course Work
Elective courses should be taken to broaden your training in your major field. For example, soils-often not a required course-is valuable to a fisheries major. Similarly, electives in agriculture economics and rural sociology would be valuable to the resource manager working in farming areas. Additional courses in communications, speech and technical writing are highly recommended for all students majoring in the natural resource sciences. Surveying would be helpful to the forester, refuge or park manager.
