A minor in NRM is a timely and meaningful addition to NDSU’s academic offerings in light of global, 21st century challenges—climate change, population growth, shrinking bio-diversity, limited resources and pollution/waste.
Complimentary to any major*, the NRM Minor gives future decision-makers greater appreciation for the interconnectedness of the social and natural worlds. NDSU graduates with a minor in NRM bring to the table an understanding of human dependence on planetary resources and how management of those resources impacts all aspects of society.
Recorded on the graduate’s transcript and highlighted on her/his resume, a minor in NRM demonstrates the determination to “go the extra mile” and readiness to think “outside the box” at a critical time in history.
