The Cleveland State Community College Forestry, Wildlife, and Fisheries program is a transfer program that allows students to capitalize on the TN Promise while gaining real world experience. This program gives students the opportunity to work with professionals from several state, federal, and private entities during their first two years of college. During their time in this program students will be able to explore the variety of jobs associated with the Forestry, Wildlife, and Fisheries field. Cleveland State also has a student chapter of The Wildlife Society. We are the only two-year school in Tennessee with a student chapter. Membership in this student chapter allows students to meet with and compete against senior institutions. It also allows students to meet with and discuss their future with advisors from senior institutions.
