So I graduated college last May with an environmental science degree. I had a a few different job offers and suddenly this surveying job I applied for reached out after I applied a few months prior and asked for an interview. Through college I worked as an equipment manager on a fleet that was worth around $900,000-$1,000,000 and worked 7 days a week most of the time so instantly the 4-10s stood out.
I’ve been here 8 months now, and the company I work for solely works in land conservation. So my first ever project was a 900 acre boundary in the mountains running it traditional. I knew absolutely nothing about surveying so I was a little surprised when I wasn’t on the side of a highway. Sinc
So to keep this short and simple, I graduated from college with an Environmental science degree and now I do land surveying mostly on conservation land. My first ever survey was a boundary around 800 acres in the mountains. I love it so far, I’m just curious what resources I can read into or what information I should focus on learning first that will help me move up? I have 0 prior knowledge of surveying.
I need like 3 assignments for my GIS class done, they should be very easy for people familiar with Arc GIS, I however am not. I graduate in 2 weeks and I need this class, if someone in here would please help me I’d be willing to pay them for the help. I just suck with computers and have no clue what I am doing. Anybody?
So I am an undergraduate studying Environmental Science with a concentration in natural resource management and forest and plant ecology, as well as a minor in biology. I have been working full time to pay for school/housing at a golf course that has gone through extensive renovations. We have done massive invasive species removal, removed dead/at risk trees, and created pollinator gardens, nature areas, and tree nursery’s all over the past 3 years. I’m the mechanic, so I manage almost a million dollars of equipment but have worked closely with my boss on these different projects. My question is, can I use this experience to help me get a job? If so, where should I aim to apply my knowledge?
So I am going into 3rd year of college and am majoring in environmental science with a minor in biology, I obviously have to take chemistry along with organic chemistry. My question is basically what do I need to start learning and trying to understand first? I have a book on chemistry that I’m reading to try and get a good idea of the subject. I’m more worried about the ideas and concepts that maybe will confuse me at first but are necessary to understand. Maybe I am overthinking it but I would appreciate any type of advice you’d give to someone new to the field.
Okay so I’m just curious what other peoples take on this is, I’m watching the Jre podcast #961 with Michael Shermer who is a skeptic. I can’t help but see the blatant disregard for the evidence at hand so it makes me wonder if there’s really a widespread pushback across the globe to this idea, is it really that hard to believe? I mean the evidence they bring is hard for me to dispute, I look at the example of the sphinx and how the erosion patterns don’t match up with the current estimated age. Obviously there’s other possibilities but they seem pretty logically sound on most of their arguments. So again I’m just curious to know if this is a lot more mainstream than it seems or if it’s still
