B.S. in Forest Resources
The Westervelt Company internship
“At the Warnell School, we are required to complete a course that satisfies professional development criteria. My internship did just that. It allowed me to practice the knowledge I gained in the classroom at the University of Georgia and prepared me for my future career. Additionally, it allowed me to develop skills and field experience necessary to become a wildlife biologist. “
