NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION

SAMPLE SCHEDULE

The schedule
below shows how the requirements for the A.A.S. Natural Resources Conservation
degree may be met in four semesters. This schedule is an example of one
of many possible schedules. It is included here only as an illustration
of the type of schedule that might be followed by a full-time student. Many
students attending Finger Lakes Community College who have work and/or family
obligations choose a different sequence of courses and take more than four
semesters to fulfill the requirements for the A.A.S. Natural Resources Conservation
degree. Similarly, students who find they need to take some additional course
work to better prepare them for courses included in the A.A.S. Natural Resources
Conservation degree program may plan a schedule that takes more than four
semesters to complete the degree. All students should consult their advisor
when they plan their schedule.
CON 190 Conservation
Field Camp is held in May immediately after the spring semester and runs for one
week. This course is required and should be taken as early as possible.
