Where conservation meets passion

The online fisheries and wildlife sciences degree is an applied, science-based program that focuses on maintaining balance for species and habitats in the wild. Students have the unique opportunity to choose a specialization area to develop their interests and knowledge to make vital decisions about fish, wildlife and the delicate environments they live in.

This degree is offered by OSU's Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, which was the first and is still the only department in the nation to offer a bachelor's degree in combined fisheries and wildlife sciences entirely online. The courses are delivered online by Oregon State Ecampus.

Additionally, the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife is part of OSU's College of Agricultural Sciences, which is recognized as a world-class leader in the industry, ranking 22nd in a new international survey of more than 3,000 universities.
