Earn a degree in Natural Resources
The Quinney College of Natural Resources (QCNR) offers classes, field experiences and outdoor research opportunities to help undergraduate students explore the natural world. We work to help students understand ecosystems in Utah and beyond, to prepare for careers managing a wide variety of natural systems. We offer ten majors for undergraduate students across three departments, along with multiple minors and certificates.
Meet Our Students
Our students work closely with faculty and staff with hands-on field experiences. There are student opportunities at several research labs on and near the Logan campus, including the Millville Predator Research Station, the Remote Sensing and GIS laboratories, and more. Many faculty employ undergraduate students in their research efforts, offering a mentored chance to gain field and laboratory experience. We are also proud to offer funding for mentored undergraduate research projects. Click below for more information about available opportunities and examples of past projects.
