1 Fisheries & Wildlife 1 FISHERIES & WILDLIFE Description Website: Fisheries and wildlife (F&W) professionals are responsible for the conservation, protection, regulation, and management of our nation's fish and wildlife resources. Their management strategies must provide for both consumptive (hunting, fishing) and non-consumptive uses (bird watching, non-game species enhancement, threatened and endangered species protection, and others). Students who successfully fulfill the requirements in the fisheries and wildlife degree program are prepared to enter postgraduate programs as well as competitively enter the work force. The curriculum reflects civil service requirements of the federal government for wildlife and fisheries biologists and incorporates course requirements for certification in professional societies. The breadth of the curriculum prepares graduates to address complex environmental issues and to interact professionally with a multitude of natural resources disciplines in order to develop solutions to problems. Typical careers for graduates of this degree program include fisheries biologist, wildlife biologist, law enforcement officers, ecologists, habitat managers, zookeepers, disease specialists, or research biologists with private consulting firms and zoos, or with governmental resource management agencies at the local, state, or federal level. Because this is a broad field, students should consult their advisor as they select one of the 7 options. ollege Requirements ollege Admission Requirements for admission into the ollege of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources (ASNR) are consistent with general University admission requirements (one unit equals one high school year): 4 units of English, 4 units of mathematics, 3 units of natural sciences, 3 units of social studies, and 2 units of foreign language. Students must also meet performance requirements (AT composite of 20 or higher OR combined SAT score of 950 or higher OR rank in the top one-half of graduating class; transfer students must have a 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) cumulative grade point average and 2.0 on the most recent term of attendance. For students entering the PGA Golf Management degree program, a certified golf handicap of 12 or better (e.g., USGA handicap card) or written ability (MS Word file) equivalent to a 12 or better handicap by a PGA professional or high school golf coach is required. For more information, please visit: Admission Deficiencies/Removal of Deficiencies Students who are admitted to ASNR with core course deficiencies must remove these deficiencies within the first 30 credit hours at the University of Nebraska Lincoln, or within the first calendar year at Nebraska, whichever takes longer, excluding foreign languages. Students have up to 60 credit hours to remove foreign language deficiencies. ollege-level course work taken to remove deficiencies may be used to meet degree requirements in ASNR. Deficiencies in the required entrance subjects can be removed by completion of specified courses in the University or by correspondence. The Office of Admissions, Alexander Building (south entrance), ity ampus, provides information to new students on how deficiencies can be removed. ollege Degree Requirements urriculum Requirements The curriculum requirements of the ollege consist of three areas: AE (Achievement-entered Education); ollege of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources ore; and Degree Program requirements and electives. All three areas of the ollege urriculum Requirements are incorporated within the description of the Major/Degree Program sections of the catalog. The individual major/degree program listings of classes insures that a student will meet the minimum curriculum requirements of the ollege. Foreign Languages/Language Requirement Two units of a foreign language are required. This requirement is usually met with two years of high school language. Minimum Hours Required for Graduation The ollege grants the bachelors degree in programs associated with agricultural sciences, natural resources and related programs. Students working toward a degree must earn at least 120 semester hours of credit. A minimum cumulative grade point average of (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) must be maintained throughout the course of studies and is required for graduation. Some degree programs have a higher cumulative grade point average required for graduation. Please check the degree program on its graduation cumulative grade point average. Grade Rules Removal of -, D and F Grades Only the most recent letter grade received in a given course will be used in computing a student s cumulative grade point average if the student has completed the course more than once and previously received a grade or grades below in that course. The previous grade (or grades) will not be used in the computation of the cumulative grade point average, but it will remain a part of the academic record and will appear on any transcript. A student can remove from his/her cumulative average a course grade of -, D+, D, D- or F if the student repeats the same course at the University of Nebraska and receives a grade other than P (pass), I (incomplete), N (no pass), W (withdrew), or NR (no report). If a course is no longer being offered, it is not eligible for the revised grade point average computation process. For complete procedures and regulations, see the Office of the University Registrar website at Pass/No Pass Students in ASNR may take any course offered on a Pass/No Pass basis within the 24-hour limitation established by the Faculty Senate. However, a department may specify that the Pass/No Pass status of its courses be limited to non-majors or may choose to offer some courses for letter grades only. GPA Requirements A minimum cumulative grade point average of (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) must be maintained throughout the course of studies and is required for graduation. Some degree programs have a higher cumulative grade point average required for graduation. Please check the degree program on its graduation cumulative grade point average. Transfer redit Rules To be considered for admission, a transfer student, Nebraska resident or nonresident, must have an accumulated average of (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) and a minimum average in the last semester of attendance at another

2 2 Fisheries & Wildlife college. Transfer students who have completed less than 12 credit hours of college study must submit either AT or SAT scores. Ordinarily, credits earned at an accredited college are accepted by the University. The ollege, however, will evaluate all hours submitted on an application for transfer and reserves the right to accept or reject any of them. Sixty (60) is the maximum number of hours the University will accept on transfer from a two-year college. Ninety (90) is the maximum number of hours the University will accept from a four-year college. Transfer credit in the degree program must be approved by the degree program advisor on a Request for Substitution Form to meet specific course requirements, group requirements, or course level requirements in the major. At least 9 hours in the major field, including the capstone course, must be completed at the University of Nebraska Lincoln regardless of the number of hours transferred. The ollege will accept no more than 10 semester hours of -, D+, D and D- grades from other schools. The -, D+, D and D- grades can only be applied to free electives. This policy does not apply to the transfer of grades from UNO or UNK to the University of Nebraska Lincoln. Joint Academic Transfer Programs The ollege of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources has agreements with many institutions to support joint academic programs. The transfer programs include dual degree programs and cooperative degree programs. Dual degree programs offer students the opportunity to receive a degree from a participating institution and also to complete requirements for a bachelor of science degree in ASNR. ooperative programs result in a single degree from either the University of Nebraska Lincoln or the cooperating institution. Dual Degree Programs A to B Programs The A to B Program, a joint academic program offered by the ASNR and participating community colleges, allows students to complete the first two years of a degree program at the participating community college and continue their education and study in a degree program leading toward a bachelor of science degree. The A to B Program provides a basic knowledge plus specialized course work. Students transfer into ASNR with junior standing. Depending on the community college, students enrolled in the A to B Program may complete the requirements for an associate of science at the community college, transfer to the University of Nebraska Lincoln, and work toward a bachelor of science degree. Participating community colleges include: entral ommunity ollege Metropolitan ommunity ollege Mid-Plains ommunity ollege Nebraska ollege of Technical Agriculture Northeast ommunity ollege Southeast ommunity ollege Western Nebraska ommunity ollege 3+2 Programs Two specialized degree programs in animal science and veterinary science are offered jointly with an accredited college or school of veterinary medicine. These two programs permit ASNR animal science or veterinary science students to receive a bachelor of science degree from the University of Nebraska Lincoln with a degree in animal science or veterinary science after successfully completing two years of the professional curriculum in veterinary medicine at an accredited veterinary school. Students who successfully complete the 3+2 Program, must complete the Application for Degree form and provide transcripts to the redentials lerk, Office of the University Registrar, 107 anfield Administration Building. Students should discuss these degree programs with their academic advisor. ooperative Degree Programs Academic credit from the University and a cooperating institution is applied towards a four-year degree from either the University of Nebraska Lincoln (University degree-granting program) or the cooperating institution (non University degree-granting program). All have approved programs of study. UNL Degree-Granting Programs A University of Nebraska Lincoln degree-granting program is designed to provide students the opportunity to complete a two-year program of study at one of the four-year institutions listed below, transfer to ASNR and complete the requirements for a bachelor of science degree. hadron State ollege. hadron State ollege offers a 2+2 program leading to a grassland ecology and management degree program and a transfer program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Education in the teaching option. Wayne State ollege. Wayne State ollege offers a 3+1 program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Plant Biology in the ecology and management option. University of Nebraska at Kearney.

Dordt ollege (Iowa) Agricultural Education: Teaching Option. This program allows students to pursue an Agricultural Education Teaching Option degree leading toward a bachelor of science in agricultural education. Students at Dordt ollege will complete 90 credit hours in the Agricultural Education: Teaching Option Transfer Program. Residency Students must complete at least 30 of the total hours for their degree using University of Nebraska Lincoln credits. At least 18 of the 30 credit hours must be in courses offered through ASNR 1 (>299) including the appropriate AE 10 degree requirement or an approved AE 10 substitution offered through another Nebraska college and excluding independent study regardless of the number of hours transferred. redit earned during education abroad may be used toward the residency requirement if students register through UNL and participate in priorapproved education abroad programs. University of Nebraska Lincoln open enrollment and summer independent study courses count toward residence. 1 Includes courses taught by ASNR faculty through interdisciplinary prefixes (e.g., LIFE, MBIO, ENVR, SIL, EAEP, HRTM, ENS) and ASNR crosslisted courses taught by non-asnr faculty. Online and Distance Education There are many opportunities to earn college credit online through the University of Nebraska Lincoln. Some of these credits may be applicable not only as elective credits, but also toward the fulfillment of the ollege s education requirements. redits earned online may count toward residency. However, certain offerings may not be counted toward scholarship requirements or academic recognition criteria. For further information, contact: Office of Online and Distance Education University of Nebraska Lincoln 305 Brace Labs Lincoln, NE Independent Study Rules Students wishing to take part in independent studies must obtain permission; complete and sign a contract form; and furnish copies of the contract to the instructor, advisor, departmental office, and the Dean s Office. The contract should be completed before registration. Forms are available in 103 Agricultural Hall or online at the ASNR website. Independent study projects include research, literature review or extension of course work under supervision and evaluation of a departmental faculty member. Students may only count 12 hours of independent study toward their degrees and no more than 6 hours can be counted during their last 36 hours earned, excluding senior thesis, internships, and courses taught under an independent study number. Other ollege Degree Requirements apstone ourse Requirement A capstone course is required for each ASNR degree program. A capstone course is defined as a course in which students are required to integrate diverse bodies of knowledge to solve a problem or formulate a policy of societal importance.
