Top ten reasons to attend UWSP graduate program in EE/interp: |
|
|
|
|
| 10)
Stevens Point is located in the beautiful transition zone of Wisconsin, so
there are tons of opportunities to take part in outdoor activities like
skiing, hiking on the Ice Age Trail, biking on the Green Circle Trail,
canoeing on the Plover River, fishing, and hunting. |
 |
| 9)
There are great opportunities to travel internationally while in graduate
school at UWSP! Take, for instance, the Natural Resource winterim
trip to Mexico, Guatemala and Belize, or the trip to Costa Rica.
What an adventure! |
|
| 8)
The faculty are nationally-renowned experts in the fields of environmental
education and interpretation. These are the people who WRITE the
books that are USED in EE/interp classes across the United States! Imagine
having the chance to work with and learn from the BEST of the BEST! |

You'll get hands-on experience in both environmental education and
interpretation, and the chance to get very involved in local schools and
the community through extracurricular groups. |
