Pre-Forestry

The School of Agribusiness and Agriscience offers a two-year pre-forestry program by cooperative agreement with the University of Tennessee which offers two curricula in forestry:

Forest Resource Management
Wildlife and Fisheries Science

Two years of additional study are necessary to meet the requirements for a Bachelor of Science degree in forestry. These courses also may be transferred to programs in other universities.
