What type of student succeeds in the field of Wildlife Conservation and Management?
Most conservation positions require excellent communication skills because of frequent contact with the public. Often, employees are asked to speak to groups about conservation subjects. Public contact also occurs when employees gather information or enforce wildlife rules and regulations. Also, students that are highly motivated in biology and have a problem-solving orientation are most likely to succeed. What is the typical class size? Although first-semester freshman biology class lectures are large (60 to 100 students), lab sections typically have less than 24 students. Upper division classes often have 10 to 20 students. How do students work together with faculty? Students and faculty work closely on a one-on-one basis during faculty-sponsored internships and student research projects. Faculty members also make every effort to meet with students as they work on projects, study for exams, and plan their schedules during advisement sessions. What student organizations are available?
