NRSM 404 and NRSM 560 lay the groundwork for all other courses in the Program.  http://www.cfc.umt.edu/wmdep/courses/nrsm404-nrsm560.php

This course provides a broad perspective of what wilderness is and how the idea developed, and exposes the student to some of the differing values, ethics, and expectations of wilderness held by society. It offers an account of the origins of the wilderness idea, tracing the beginnings of the conservation movement from the Greek philosophers to today.  It is the first in the series of 4 courses leading to a Graduate Certificate in Wilderness Management if courses are taken for graduate credit.
