Undergraduate Program

The undergraduate curriculum in Wildlife and Fisheries Resources at West Virginia University is a science-based program of study designed to prepare students for the wide array of opportunities in this field. Our Faculty are dedicated to developing the next generation of young fisheries and wildlife professionals while recognizing the differing needs of our student body.

Undergraduate Requirements

Beginning in Fall 2005, the curriculum has been revised to reduce the total number of credits required for graduation to 128 while better accommodating the large number of transfer students in this program. Now students can complete their Bachelor of Science degree in WFR in four years by averaging a modest 16 hours per semester. Transfer students will find the revised requirements for basic science classes will enable them to integrate into the WFR program without the need to re-take classes. Students enrolled prior to Fall 2005 must follow the WFR 2004 Curriculum. Below are the links for the WFR Fall 2005 curriculum and WFR Fall 2004 curriculum.
