Congratulations to recent NRES graduate Patrick Johnson! 

UK College of Agriculture alum Patrick B. Johnson has made it his mission to promote and protect healthy, sustainable environmental systems. With over 6,000 students in the senior class, Patrick received the Sullivan Award which is given to one senior male and female at UK who show a commitment to community service. 

NRES Summer Camp is now being offered in TWO countries!

Students now have two options for NRES Summer Camp. Option one is in Robinson Forest, where it has been taking place for the last 10+ years. Option two is in Costa Rica, where the students will travel from coast to coast learning in a tropical environment. 

In Fall 2010, UK's Natural Resource Conservation and Management (NRCM) degree program was changed to Natural Resources and Environmental Science (NRES) degree program. While the focus on natural resources remains, this name change reflects significant curriculum improvements and a renewed focus on communication with stakeholders - students, faculty, alumni and employers.
