What are good schools with courses that would help get into the fields listed in the title? I understand that many universities don’t have specific “bird” classes. What should courses should I look into?
The most direct path would be to study wildlife biology. Any college which offers the major will have resources available that will help you specialize in Ornithology, including professors with expertise in the field. Some schools to consider include Colorado State University - Fort Collins, University of Wyoming, and Kansas State University.
The next best option would be majoring in zoology at one of these schools.
Hope this helps!
