Get ready to get your hands dirty in the greatest lab around: the Big Bend Region of Texas.

Here, at Sul Ross, students get hands-on learning across a wide range of disciplines. Our facility believes the best way to help students learn is to provide them with real-world experience that translates into employment opportunities. That means getting out into the field, into the environments where they'll be working.

If you're interested in a career that's rooted in being outdoors - out on thre range or taking care of the environment - then this is for you. Our students pursue careers associated with the production, processing and distribution of food and fiber, the management of natural resources (range, wildlife, and conservation biology), the sound application of agricultural business practices, and agricultural education.

The School of Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences was established in 1999 as an outgrowth of the Division of Range Animal Science.

The programs are housed in the Everett E. Turner Range Animal Science Center on East Highway 90, about a mile east of the main campus. We serve students interested in pursuing careers associated with the production, processing and distribution of food and fiber, the management of natural resources (range, wildlife, and conservation biology), the sound application of agricultural business practices, and agricultural education.

Our faculty stresses a hands-on learning approach, with emphasis given to building a solid background in the fundamental principles of your area of study.

You can earn associate of applied science, bachelor of science, master of agriculture, and master of science degrees in two departments: Animal Science and Natural Resource Management. We pride ourselves in offering excellent facilities and learning opportunities in a student-oriented, learning-centered environment.
