Program Description
BCIT's Fish, Wildlife and Recreation program is for people seeking a unique educational experience and who want to make a positive difference in the world today. Since 1969, the FWR program has been preparing students for rewarding careers in the conservation and management of fish, wildlife, parks, and outdoor recreation. The program is designed to give students a broad range of applied skills, experiences, and knowledge. A significant amount of their time is spent outside where they will learn to identify, inventory, and monitor BC's fish and wildlife species and the habitats they use. Students will learn how parks and protected areas are established, designed, and managed. Upon completion of the FWR program, they will be ready to work in the dynamic and diverse field of resource management.
Note: It is recommended that students apply to the January 30th deadline to increase their chance of acceptance. The May deadline is only available if space permits.
