Those who are interested in the earth’s ecological processes like grasslands or shrub lands ecosystems should consider pursuing a degree in range management from Sheridan College. Range Managers possess a solid understanding of rangeland ecology. They examine how certain soils affect plant growth, and what environmental factors affect a rangeland ecosystem. They also examine and study how livestock grazing or fires affect plant communities. Range Managers are also found studying the ecology to accomplish management goals such as: beautifying recreational scenery, sustainable and productive livestock forage, clean and adequate water, and improving wildlife habitat.

 

Sheridan College Range Management majors study in the new Watt Regional Agriculture Center. Our students have access to state-of-the-art labs, meat processing facilities, a fully computerized greenhouse, irrigated and dry-land labs, warm and cold water aquaculture systems and the 4,800 acre Purdy Ranch. Additionally, our students benefit from small class sizes and instructors that truly care about their successes. We are proud of the fact that our transfer students consistently exhibit higher GPA’s then their peers who began their college careers elsewhere. If a quality education at an affordable priced in a state-of-the-art facility is what you are seeking, please contact any of the Sheridan College Ag faculty for more information.
