Rangelands are important environments in the West and make up nearly half of the total land area in Idaho. Our nationally ranked Rangeland Conservation degree (accredited by the Society for Rangeland Management) prepares students to manage, conserve, and restore these diverse environments, which include grasslands, shrublands, woodlands, and deserts. Our graduates are leaders in the field, and our program prepares students for a career with government agencies, conservation groups and private land owners. Additionally, our program provides a solid understanding of ecological restoration and the many issues facing natural resource management.
