The Study of Outdoor Leadership

 

The program balances the theory of leadership and experiential learning with skills development and hands-on opportunities to lead.  In doing so, this major prepares students for careers in outdoor education and to lead field trips and adventure trips within the leisure industry.  The blending of experiences in science, business, sport and recreation management, and education is designed to enable students to find careers in a broad variety of fields.

The College is located in one of the country’s premiere destinations for all-season outdoor recreation. The Contoocook River which runs adjacent to New England Colleges offers excellent white-water kayaking during spring. The White Mountains, located within a two hour drive, provide numerous hiking and backpacking opportunities. For those interested in more rigorous conditions, Tuckerman Ravine challenges extreme skiers.
