The Cabela’s Apprenticeship program funds undergraduate research projects aimed at providing tangible, experiential opportunities for undergraduate students to address issues around recruiting and maintaining participants in outdoor activities, creating and managing fish and wildlife and their habitat, protecting threatened and endangered species, and supporting conservation of ecosystems. It is a partnership with Cabela’s, Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, and the School of Natural Resources at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.

Each year, current apprentices create posters highlighting their research project and present them to Cabela’s and Game and Parks representatives, as well as faculty, staff and students at UNL.

An informational session for those interesting in applying for a Cabela’s Apprenticeship for the 2020-21 school year will run concurrently with the event.
