Wilderness Leadership Minor (WLD)


The Wilderness Leadership minor will introduce students to outdoor education philosophy, methods, and practices, with a focus on the core skills associated with planning and leading multi-day expeditions and backcountry trips. The required fall semester immersion experience involves extensive fieldwork - more than 20 days in the backcountry backpacking and canoe camping - along with medical training and potential certification as a Wilderness First Responder. This minor is available to students majoring in any discipline other than Adventure Education.
