The 户外的领导 and Education (OLED) minor will provide students with the chance to explore a career in the Outdoor Education and Adventure Education.
它将使学生具备基本的技能, abilities and knowledge required to enjoy playing and working in the great outdoors. Students of this minor will find themselves scaling rock walls, 沿着谢南多厄河划皮艇, 学习生态学和自然史, 以及发展教学和领导技能. The OLED minor supports a variety of professional work in such fields as K-12 education, 户外休闲, 环境教育, 青年及成人领袖, 以及指导/服装公司, 非营利和私人营地, resorts, 水疗和健康中心, 州立和国家公园, 还有治疗项目.
The OLED program at SU is committed to giving students hands on, practical work experience by partnering with the Shenandoah Outdoor & Adventure Recreation (SOAR) program and Shenandoah Salvage Company. SOAR trains students to be outdoor trip leaders while the Salvage Company taught them to be Sustainability Educators. OLED minors have the opportunity to graduate with a multiple years of relevant work experience, training, 以及简历上的技能. OLED is also interdisciplinary in nature by including 环境研究, Psychology, and Management classes to make student more competitive after graduation.
The OLED program has given me the opportunity to learn about not only myself, 还有我周围的世界. I can now appropriately enjoy and contribute to nature while helping others do the same. This program has given me purpose and the tools to fulfill it and I would encourage anyone to find that purpose as well.”
