A minor must contain at least 9 hours of upper division course work. Courses taken to satisfy Core Areas I through V may not be counted as course work in the minor. Courses taken in Core Area VI may be counted as course work in the minor. The Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources is a premier program for Wildlife Sciences. Wildlife are a public resource with ecological, cultural, and economic importance. Wildlife sciences integrate biology, ecology, animal behavior, animal population dynamics, habitat management, animal physiology and nutrition, conservation genetics, wildlife diseases and health, and social sciences to understand wild animal populations and diagnose, study, and develop solutions to manage the use of animal populations and prevent wild animal extinctions. There are many allied fields for which a minor in wildlife sciences is highly complementary and likely desirable among undergraduates, including Animal Science, Anthropology, Avian Biology, Biology, Ecology, Forestry, Marine Science, Natural Resource Management and Sustainability, Neurobiology, Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Management.
