The objectives of the Club are to provide (1) an opportunity for better communication and liaison between students, faculty, the College of Agriculture Science, private, and public organizations, (2) to provide opportunities for field experience, and (3) to provide leadership training. The Club will attempt to provide students with informational speakers, activities, and interactions pertaining to the field of Fisheries and Wildlife Science as well as be a professional representative of the Department, College, and University.
