The Land & Resource Management program currently offers a Certificate in Environmental Practice which prepares students to effectively repair disturbed land resulting from industrial development and activity.

The focus is on reclamation and remediation of sites disturbed by industry, preparing reports and documents associated with field work, and applying the relevant regulations regarding reclamation and remediation to such sites.

Employment opportunities are concentrated in the oil and gas sector with some opportunities in related government Ministries, mining, and forestry. As resource companies strive to meet government and industry guidelines, this field of work will continue to grow across western Canada.

Travel and field work are regular features of careers within this industry.
