Natural Resource Biology, A.S.

This program includes areas in Environmental Biology, Forestry, Resource Management, and Wildlife Management. The program of Natural Resource Biology provides coursework concerning ecological communities, plant and animal studies, and Geographic Information Systems. The courses required in this program parallel those found at four-year institutions and should transfer without difficulty. Students must successfully complete core courses with a “C-” or better to meet program requirements. Transfer courses are designed to aid students in completing their four-year degrees. Students planning to transfer to a four-year program may need to have additional hours beyond the program requirements at Northwest College in order to transfer in as a junior. These students should consult with their advisor and the appropriate four-year college catalog.
