In this course, we examine natural resources broadly defined, including fisheries, forestry, wildlife, agriculture, mining, outdoor recreation, and urban sustainability. During three weeks we discover and document examples where sustainability of resource use matters. The course explores the effect of terrain, marine dynamics, climate, vegetation, social structures and technologies on natural resource use. The course is a collaboration of Purdue University, North Carolina State University and SLU (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences).


All students participating in a departmental program will complete a pre and post assessment as part of program completion.
