From March 23 to 27, 2015, the Department of Fish, Wildlife and Conservation Biology at Colorado State University is running its annual Wildlife Management Short Course on the campus in Fort Collins, Colorado. This popular course was developed for laypersons and agency personnel with non-wildlife training. A number of agencies have sent administrators, commissioners, planners, information and environmental education personnel, legislators, and other staff to this course to obtain a broad exposure to wildlife conservation, management and issues. Citizen conservation organizations have also sent staff members.

This five day short course is designed to provide an overview of principles of wildlife (including fisheries) ecology and management. Current programs and issues related to natural resources conservation will also be discussed. The short course consists of presentations by University faculty and personnel from various agencies and organizations.
