IDNR employees consist of biologists, park rangers, land agents, administrators, maintenance workers, secretaries, foresters, educators, police, landscape architects and engineers. The end result of the work done by IDNR employees impacts and affects everyone in Illinois, current, as well as future residents. Whether its surveying land for a new site, patrolling a lake to ensure safety of its users, collecting and analyzing research data or presenting a workshop to teachers about conservation education, working with natural resources is exciting, fulfilling and is our future. Read about some career options below. Staff within the state park system are responsible for the management of wildlife, habitat areas and for providing safe and enjoyable recreational opportunities. Duties vary from site to site depending on the types of habitats present and services available. A large amount of time and effort is devoted to maintaining all state park sites-such as mowing, repairing facilities, painting-or developing new areas. Site staff are responsible for registering campers, picnic groups and hunters and monitoring potentially dangerous situations within the park. Some sites have staff that conduct educational programs for park visitors. All people working in the parks are in contact with park visitors on a daily basis and must have good communication skills.

Extractions: Potential Careers ... Sources of Additional Information Forestry is the science, art, and practice of managing and using the natural resources on forestlands. The major combines social, physical, and biological sciences to ensure informed management of forests and associated resources. What the Major is Like Foresters are frequently involved in managing timber, water, recreation, forage, and wildlife habitat. They also play an important role in improving the environment. In addition to managing the forest's many resources, some forestry professionals are involved in wood science and technologythat is, they study the physical and chemical properties of wood as an industrial raw material. These specialists are concerned with all aspects of the manufacture and sale of wood products, such as oriented strand board and wafer board, and with new techniques for manufacturing other composite products. Their jobs may involve developing new wood products or monitoring the manufacture of existing products. Undergraduate programs begin with general course work in English, mathematics, chemistry, physics, speech, and statistics. Basic forestry is usually studied in the freshman year. Because forestry is a diversified field, students have to choose one of several specialized areas. Introductory forestry courses and field studies conducted by forestry faculty provide information about these options. Once students have acquired this background, they begin course work in their chosen area. The decision on the specialty may come as early as the freshman year or as late as the end of the sophomore year.

College Majors And Careers - Natural Resource Management Regardless of your career choices, increase your College, Research Assistant, fisheries Wildlife Development Committee, Extension forestry Specialist, North http://careerservices.rutgers.edu/Mnaturalresources.html
Extractions: Career Opportunities for Majors in Natural Resource Management Natural Resource Management, often categorized with the agricultural or environmental sciences, provides an understanding of how natural living systems function and how they can be managed to provide benefits to people. Students may pursue course work that prepares them for traditional careers in resource management, or they may take a broader array of courses that meets interests related to the conservation of natural resources and specific areas of concentration such as ecology, wildlife or fisheries. A broad background in natural resource management, however, is appropriate preparation for resource management professionals. Both practical (internship) experience and the development of basic computer application competency in the field are required. A bachelor's degree is sufficient for most advanced technician positions in a wide variety of organizations. As one progresses in the field an advanced degree might be required. While most natural resource management majors work in related occupations and eventually obtain advanced degrees, others choose different directions. Many careers do not require a specific major, but rather a wide range of demonstrated skills and accomplishments. Regardless of your career choices, increase your marketability to employers through internships, responsible work experience, good grades, and involvement in college activities.
