College of Natural Resources

The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point College of Natural Resources is widely regarded as the nation’s leading undergraduate natural resource program with deep roots in Wisconsin’s strong conservation heritage, inspired by pioneering leaders such as Aldo Leopold, John Muir, and Gaylord Nelson. We currently have more than 10,000 alumni, over 1700 undergraduate majors, and 180 faculty and staff. The strength of our program is in its interdisciplinary approach and emphasis on hands-on field experiences. Students within the Forestry, Wildlife Ecology, Fisheries and Water Resources, and Soils Disciplines participate in a summer field experience at one of our field stations or in Europe. During these summer experiences, students gain knowledge and skills that they can use in real-world situations. Our students within the Paper Science and Engineering Department culminate their program with a paper mill internship where they gain real-world experience. Our Graduates can be found all across the globe working in various Natural Resource fields and in the Paper Science and Engineering arena.
