Thanks to our generous Day of Giving donors, our students are able to participate in unique hands-on experiences that better prepare them for future careers in natural resources. This year, our students will:
🔴 Travel to San Diego to learn about open spaces and the native plants and animals that inhabit them.
🔴 Camp out at the North Carolina Coast to set up mammal traps and get an up-close look at behavioral patterns in elk.
🔴 Gain real-world skills through a training program that focuses on improving our waterways through water quality testing.
🔴 Complete firefighter training, allowing them to participate in NC State’s prescribed burns across 500+ acres of land.
🔴 And much more.
Learn how you can help support future opportunities like these through NC State’s Day of Giving: http://ncst.at/P7oX50VlPkK

Meet @ncstateprtm alumni Jude DesNoyer ‘06 and Katie Butler ‘23, the masterminds behind the new initiative called Centennial Campus Placemaking. 🌳 🏙️
The initiative is designed to engage and welcome the local community to Centennial Campus. A key aspect is the diverse range of programs and events designed to bring people together, like pickleball and monthly hikes to Lake Johnson.
“Our job is to create a vibrant and active place on Centennial Campus for everyone, not just NC State or NC State faculty, staff and students. We want to be open to our private industry partners and tenants who are on Centennial Campus, as well as the local public.”

Last night, students in the James Buzzard Leadership Development Program attended a panel discussion on leadership and philanthropy at @drink321coffee on @ncstatecentennial.
Speakers included 321 Coffee’s co-founder and CEO Lindsay Wrege ‘21; David Fox `94 of Goldman Sachs; Dawn Mason, NC State assistant vice chancellor of partnerships; and Bart Nicholson `81, who established the college`s Bart and Pam Nicholson Endowed Scholarship. Moderating the panel was Jennifer Piercy, assistant dean for philanthropy in the College of Natural Resources.

The Spring 2025 CALS & CNR HOT Jobs+Internships Fair was a big success. Thank you to all the students and 75+ employers who attended!

On Monday, several of our sport management students in @ncstateprtm golfed and taught putting to residents at @hayesbartonplace. 🏌️⛳
📸: Take a look back at the highlights of this memorable evening.

Our students enjoy a vast array of internship opportunities with employers from all around the world, gaining hands-on experiences that equip them for their future careers. One such employer that works with #NCStateCNR is Raleigh-based Terracon.
Since working with the college, Terracon has provided students with meaningful experiences and given them the opportunity to work in environmental consulting. During their internships, students work just like they would post-graduation as environmental professionals.
"I had the opportunity to do office and field work which was amazing. So, I was able to improve my data analysis skills as well as soil classification skills. I also experienced many unique situations while doing fieldwork that enhanced my experience level.” —Cecilia Nottingham `24
