Wildlife Management and Wildlife Sciences from Hocking College is a Campus Associate Ecology degree that prepares you for a Science career. The Wildlife Management and Wildlife Sciences majors prepare you for a career working with both game and non-game species of fish and wildlife . Your choice of majors depends on whether you intend to go on to complete a Bachelor of Science degree in a 4-year program after leaving Hocking College , or whether you plan to enter the job market upon completion of your 2-year degree from Hocking. The Wildlife Management Major is designed for students interested primarily in seeking employment in fish and wildlife careers after acquiring their 2-year associate degree . Most positions with Ohio county and state parks, and the Ohio Division of Wildlife, require a 2-year wildlife degree. The Wildlife Sciences Major is designed for students considering going on for a 4-year bachelors degree . Students in the Science Major take additional hours in math, biology, and more transferable classes in Social Sciences that aid in transfer to another school. Upon completion of the Science Major, you will qualify for the same 2-year degree positions as the Management Major but will be better prepared to go on to a 4-year program. Most professional positions with the United States Forest Service, U.S. Park Service, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service require a 4-year degree , as do most state wildlife agencies outside Ohio.
