Welcome Majors & Minors at Cal Poly Humboldt!
This show takes a close look at the rich academic offerings of our campus and all of the areas of study that can be pursued as a student. Each episode features an interview with a department Chair (or Chairs) and focuses on the specifics of an area of study and the value of that pursuit both inside the college experience and beyond.
This week's guest is Erin Kelly, Chair of the Department of Forestry, Fire and Rangeland Management, which is housed inside the College of Natural Resources & Sciences. The curriculum focuses on teaching students to connect with and manage the forests that make up ⅓ of the land in the United States, ensuring a sustainable future for the nation. During their time at Cal Poly Humboldt, students in this department get hands-on learning in some of the world’s most spectacular and important forests and rangelands, personal attention from faculty, and a clear path to a career outdoors.
Erin Kelly has a Phd from Oregon State University in Forest Social Science, an Masters of Science from Oregon State University in Forest Resources and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Whitman College.
