Conservation Law Enforcement

Conservation law enforcement prepares students for a comprehensive understanding of fields related to resource and environmental protection. Building on a broad base of law enforcement knowledge, students learn the importance of integrating science into their theoretical and practical views concerning conservation of our natural resources. Active classroom and laboratory experiences focus on exciting topics like wildlife techniques, marine and wildlife law, crime scene investigation, biology and fisheries sciences. Our students gain distinct advantages from our carefully designed courses intended for careers in conservation and environmental and marine law enforcement. Successful students are employable in agencies dedicated to enforcing public and commercial conservation laws at the federal, state and local level. Opportunities include positions as game wardens, fish and game officers, marine patrol officers, harbor masters, and environmental protection officers.
