Where Managing Natural Resources Meets the Future of Ranching
As national and global populations continue to grow, the coupling of livestock production with wildlife management in holistic ranch management approaches has become paramount. Therefore, the next generation of ranch managers must be well trained in the best practices and application of appropriate skills to ensure the tradition and relevance of ranching in the western U.S.
Our goal is to build a relevant, stakeholder-driven graduate ranch management program that emphasizes experiential, hands-on learning.
This program is specifically designed to include formal classes in:
- Wildlife
- Range and ranch management
- Animal science
- Ag business
- Leadership
- Presentations from industry-leading guest speakers
- Hands-on experience through capstone internships with partner ranches across the Western United States.
