Overview

Key features

Student learning is directed toward understanding the distribution and abundance of species (ecology), with a special emphasis on mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians (terrestrial vertebrates).

Research experience is a core component of the Wildlife Biology program at University of Nebraska Kearney, and students have the opportunity to apply their classroom knowledge to real-world issues when doing their own independent research their senior year.

As a Wildlife Biology major, you'll complete the educational requirements to eventually become a Certified Wildlife Biologist (five years of on-the-job experience is also required). Certification is an advantage to obtaining a job as a wildlife professional.
