Before embarking on this CSU certificate program in Natural Resources & the Environment, I had already earned three college degrees (one B.S. & two Masters, all in scientific fields). The certificate program was challenging, the choices of text books excellent, and the assignments very practical with valuable real-world applicability. Dr. Benson is a first-rate professor, not only as someone very knowledgeable as a professional in his field, but also as an outstanding educator.
