Wildlife Habitat Council works with businesses around the world to assist them in taking voluntary conservation actions on their corporate lands. Every November, we host our annual Conservation Conference in Baltimore, Maryland for all of our member companies and partnerships. Typically we have in attendance around 400 people from Fortune 500 companies, government organizations, and environmental non-profits.
Each year, companies sponsor scholarships for students studying in relevant fields to attend the conference. This can include fields such as biology, sustainability, animal science, GIS, environmental science, environmental planning, environmental engineering, and more.
The scholarship includes access to all of our offered sessions and workshops, networking with all of our attendees and employees, a travel stipend, a hotel room, and food. Students will get valuable information about various conservation topics that are applicable to real-world jobs and meet important people from big companies. Many students have landed internships or permanent jobs from the networking opportunities provided at our conference.
