About the Department

Welcome from the Department Head Jennifer Boyd

Welcome to the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology at Colorado State University! I am honored to represent our impactful legacy and to support the amazing work of our faculty, staff, and students.

Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology is an exciting field that unites scientific curiosity with passion for the natural world. From local to global levels, we tackle the complex challenge of managing and conserving our planet’s diverse fish and wildlife resources through research, education, and outreach.
