Jude Colbenson: specific DNR and Conservation officers are an identical element, and specific you do would desire to pass by using an academy because of the fact DNR officers have an identical arrest powers as the different police officer and carry a weapon like all different officer.
Pasty Cobbett: I work for the Indiana DNR, and the strongest majors are biology, forestry, etc. ... they will be of most help to you. I just graduated with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice, but it didn't teach me as much about what CO's do as other science/environmental majors might have. They will train you on the laws in recruit school anyway - if I had to do it over again, I would major in environmental science of some kind then minor in criminal justice... focus on criminal law and criminal procedure in your minor as those will be of more help than theory classes. Conservation officers perform a wide variety of duties and cases - it's more than just writing a traffic ticket ! or citing someone for not having a fishing license. For more information, you can look at the career opportunities page on our website:http://www.in.gov/dnr/lawenfor/career/index.htmlHope this helps!...Show more
