Undergraduate major in ENR

The Environment and Natural Resources undergraduate major is a double major, in that students must complete the requirements of a second "affiliated major" in addition to the requirements of the ENR program (although some courses will fulfill requirements in both majors). In this way, the ENR major adds a breadth of knowledge to the depth of training from a traditional discipline. With careful planning, many students are able to complete the ENR double major in little or no additional time because many of the ENR core courses and distribution classes also fulfill University Studies requirements.

Some things to remember:

• The Environment and Natural Resources major is available to any undergraduate student completing a bachelor's degree program at UW. Given the interdisciplinary nature of ENR issues, every major is an appropriate complement to studies in ENR.

• ENR student should seek advising in both ENR and their academic department to determine course schedules, eligibility for graduation, etc.

• To declare an ENR major, students must meet with Maggie Bourque, Student Advising Coordinator. You can contact her to schedule an appointment — maggie@uwyo.edu, 307-766-5089 — or stop by ENR's offices at the Kendall House (804 E. Fremont).

• The student's diploma is issued by the college of the student's affiliated major.

• Prior to graduation, each student is required to schedule an exit interview with the Haub School so that we may improve the program through student feedback.
