COLLEGE CREDIT

your syllabus. Right: Encounters with wildlife provide a rich learning experience in the backcountry that you won't find indoors.
NOLS' COLLEGE CREDIT PROGRAM IS
UNPARALLELED IN WILDERNESS EDUCATION.
For nearly 30 years NOLS has offered college credit through the

credit for NOLS courses.

University of Utah courses:
Natural History of Regional Ecosystems (Biology)
Environmental Ethics, Leave No Trace and Leadership

ASSOCIATE DEGREE PROGRAMS
NOLS and Central Wyoming College (CWC) in Riverton,
Wyoming have partnered to offer two degree programs:
Associate of Science in Environmental Science and Leadership:
During the NOLS portion of this degree program, you'll develop
environmental awareness and conservation ethics. At CWC you'll
complement this with a classic natural science education.
Associate of Arts in Outdoor Education and Leadership: Designed
for students interested in careers in outdoor education or environmental
education and activism, this degree program combines one or
more NOLS courses with education and liberal arts courses at CWC.
