The Rangeland Ecology and Watershed Management program provides a distinctive chance to combine your knowledge of rangeland ecosystems with specialized training in watershed science and hydrology. Professionals in this field divide their time between outdoor fieldwork, laboratory analysis, and office duties. Wyoming's varied landscapes—encompassing plains, grasslands, mountainous terrain, deserts, foothills, and shrublands—offer exceptional study environments.

At the doctoral level, students apply advanced research methodologies acquired during their master's studies to investigate significant challenges in rangeland and watershed systems. The 72-credit requirement (with a minimum of 12 credits in Rangeland Ecology and Watershed Management) incorporates approved transfer credits from a master's program and requires committee-approved research proposals.
