The Master of Science in Fisheries and Wildlife Science was established in the fall of 2000 to build on Arkansas Tech University’s longstanding tradition of educating fisheries and wildlife professionals.

A trademark of the program is our field-oriented approach that provides opportunities for hands-on learning through field laboratories, research projects, and working relationships with government agencies and private industry.

With both a thesis and non-thesis track, students prepare for fisheries and wildlife careers, or gain invaluable preparation for doctoral level education.
