Extractions: Environmental Studies The environmental studies major is jointly offered with the College of Arts and Sciences. The core curriculum of the environmental studies major encompasses the natural and social sciences and the ethics of responsibility as well as a senior thesis. The core curriculum is enhanced with nine areas of emphases; eight offered through the College of Arts and Sciences: anthropology, biology, chemistry, geography, geology, meteorology-climatology, social science, and sociology. The environmental studies major, Natural Resources Area of Emphasis curriculum, is for the student interested in an interdisciplinary education focusing on the use, management, and conservation of renewable natural resources. The curriculum is based on the integration of ecological principles with the utilization and conservation of natural resources. The Natural Resources Area of Emphasis will prepare students for careers in public and private organizations that are responsible for planning the use and management of natural resources and protection of the environment. Students will learn about subjects that will prepare them for positions in fields such as inventory, natural resource planning, environmental protection, sustainable development, policy analysis, and natural resources management. The Environmental Studies/Natural Resources Area of Emphasis is administered through the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources (103 Agricultural Hall) and coordinated by the CASNR Environmental Studies/Natural Resources Area of Emphasis Advisory Committee.

Extractions: All undergraduate majors in the School of Natural Resources are built around a common core curriculum. The core courses focus on underlying fundamentals from which natural resource disciplines have evolved and the application of these fundamentals to problems or issues in the natural world and society. Within each individual major, students develop depth of understanding about a specific discipline. The demand for environmental scientists has increased dramatically in recent years. State and federal regulations related to water pollution, solid waste management, air quality, and environmental impact assessment have created enormous demand for personnel with strong basic and applied scientific backgrounds. Large companies are hiring environmental scientists to help them respond to environmental regulations. Consulting firms are growing rapidly, and they are employing scientists with specific skills to work on multidisciplinary teams. The need for environmental scientists, trained to identify, analyze, and solve environmental problems that threaten our existence, will continue to increase. The Environmental Sciences major at UVM is brand new, just approved late this spring. The 1995-1996 Undergraduate Catalogue had already gone to press so you will not find Environmental Sciences listed there. Still, the Environmental Sciences major is available starting this fall, and the full catalogue-copy information is printed in Appendix 1 of this handbook.

HTML PDF Media Release Video excerpts The production, use, and release of industrial chemicals, pesticides, and their by-products in Canada can pose serious risks to the health of Canadians and to the environment. Some chemicals are associated with health problems such as cancer, decreased fertility, and neurological disorders. The federal government's scientific investigation of existing industrial chemicals and pesticides, and its management of their use were last audited in 1999. This chapter revisits the departments previously audited to assess their progress in implementing the original recommendations. Thousands of contaminated sites exist on federal lands across Canada. These sites can lead to water contamination, take valuable land out of productive use, and threaten human health and the environment. In 1995 and 1996 we audited various aspects of the federal government's management of its contaminated sites. This chapter examines the federal government's progress in the management of these sites since these audits. The audit includes a survey of 15 federal departments and agencies that own or manage contaminated sites as well as a more focussed audit of four key departments: Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, National Defence, and Transport Canada.

Extractions: Fisheries and wildlife students take courses in the natural sciences and in management to help maintain and manipulate our land, water, and animal and plant resources for the best ecological, commercial, recreational, and scientific uses. What the Major is Like Fisheries and wildlife majors study the environmental requirements of fish or wildlife species, populations, and communities. They also study sound practices to manipulate the environment and learn to regulate human activity by controlling animal harvest, pollution, and the recreational use of specific areas. Students also learn principles of conservation as well, focusing on sound efforts to maintain and manipulate natural resources. About 35 to 40 percent of a fisheries and wildlife major's course work consists of general education courses in communications, quantitative sciences (calculus, computer studies, and statistics), social sciences, and humanities. These courses generally are taken during the freshman and sophomore years. Fisheries and wildlife majors take a broad range of courses in physical sciences (10 to 15 hours in chemistry/biochemistry, physics, and earth science) and biological sciences (about 30 hours in zoology, botany, conservation, genetics, population dynamics, physiology, and ecology). They also take courses in policy, administration, and law to obtain a background in resource policy, land-use planning, and the legal and social aspects of natural resource management.

CAREERS IN CONSERVATION Conservation careers require an interest in the outdoors positions require specializeddegrees in fisheries Management, forestry Management, Wildlife http://www.conservation.state.mo.us/about/careers/careers.htm
Extractions: MISSOURI DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION CAREERS IN CONSERVATION About the Department The Missouri Department of Conservation is responsible for managing fish, forest and wildlife resources in the state. It was created by an amendment to the Missouri State Constitution in 1937, and is administered by a four-member Commission appointed by the Governor. Commissioners serve staggered six-year terms and must receive Senate confirmation. Since no more than two Commissioners may be from the same political party, the Department is free of partisan politics and is widely considered a model state conservation agency. The Department has been funded traditionally from the sale of fishing and hunting permits and federal aid monies. In 1976, Missouri voters passed a 1/8 of 1% sales tax to implement expanded conservation programs, including acquisition of select parcels of land statewide. Resource programs are administered by the Fisheries, Forestry, Wildlife and Protection Divisions and Natural History Section which are staffed by professionals with specialized training. Fisheries, forestry and wildlife research programs are coordinated at the Department's Research Center adjacent to the University of Missouri in Columbia. Outreach and Education Division produces conservation related films and publications and administers conservation education programs which are available for all grade levels in schools in the state. Design and Development Division has responsibility for architecture, engineering and construction. Administrative Services Division is responsible for fiscal services, information management services and general services. Human Resources Section administers employee relations, employment and compensation programs.
