The Department
Forests cover one-third of the land area in the United States and rangelands cover more than half of the earth's land surface. Forestry & Wildland Resources degrees teach our students to connect with and manage these lands, ensuring a sustainable future for the nation's wildlands. We provide two Bachelor of Science degrees, one in Forestry and one in Rangeland Resource Science and five distinct minors. Our graduate program is the Master of Science in Natural Resources with an option in Forestry, Watershed & Wildland Sciences.
At Cal Poly Humboldt, we provide hands-on learning in some of the world's most spectacular and important forests and rangelands, personal attention from faculty, and a clear path to a career outdoors. Our faculty work closely with our students to prepare them for careers with the government and with private employers.

Cal Poly Humboldt sits on the traditional homelands of the Wiyot people in what is currently called Arcata, CA. The Wiyot people call the area Goudi'ni (over in the woods). The Cal Poly Humboldt campus in Northern California is in close proximity to several thriving Native American tribes and communities. Humboldt currently has the largest percentage of Native American students in the CSU system and has over 30 Native American faculty and staff, many from local area California Indian tribes. Cal Poly Humboldt is home to a number of leading Native American programs including the Indian Tribal Education and Personnel Program (ITEPP) and the Indian Natural Resource, Science and Engineering Program (INRSEP). There are also many opportunities at Humboldt to conduct research, teaching and community work on Native American history and cultures, with resources in Special Collections at the Cal Poly Humboldt library. The Humboldt Room in the Library has fantastic resources for tribally focused archive materials from the region. Humboldt strives to build a supportive and inclusive Native community and engages with Native communities through initiatives and opportunities like the annual California Indian Big Time, Indigenous People's Week, and a chance to network with other faculty and staff as part of the Cal Poly Humboldt Council of American Indian Faculty and Staff.
