The USFS manages and protects our nation’s 154 national forests and 20 grasslands in 44 states and Puerto Rico to meet the needs of present and future generations.
As a Premier Partner of TWS, USFS leads the support of Native American students pursuing wildlife management careers through sponsored summer research internships. This program provides Native American students the opportunity to work side-by-side with wildlife professionals and to gain valuable and practical experience in the field. The Forest Service supports special events such as the Student-Professional Networking Event and “Careers with the U.S. Forest Service” at our Annual Conference. USFS regularly contributes articles that are published in The Wildlife Professional, providing field experience and research to our membership.
