My Statement of Major
  • Selecting an area of Biological Concentration
  • My name is Matthew Sheriff, and I am a transfer
    student from Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College
    (ABAC) in Tifton, GA. There I graduated with an
    Associate of Applied Science degree in Wildlife
    Technology. I fill comfortable working in this
    field and am pursuing a Bachelors degree in WFS
    Wildlife concentration. I am also working with
    the US Army Corps of Engineers as a Co-op student
    out of the Mobile District, AL. One of the
    requirements for their program is that I be
    enrolled in wildlife, fisheries, or environmental
    science. I have been accepted to a number of
    schools Berry College, Georgia Southwestern, etc,
    but decided to come to Tennessee Tech because of
    their WFS program. The program here is highly
    respect by many professionals in the field b/c of
    the applied methods of teachings. I love
    wildlife in general and law enforcement, this is
    why my job as a Park Ranger and my major in WFS
    Wildlife suits me so well. I love what I do and
    worked very hard to get where I am. After the
    first day of BIOL 1000 and receiving information
    about other majors and concentrations I am glad
    to be a WFSW student. I couldnt picture myself
    wanting to be any other major at the present
    time.

Statement of Interest in Biology Professional
Organizations and Clubs
  • Topic  Professional Organizations (Clubs) in
    Biology at Tennessee Tech  
  • Matthew Sheriff
  • With the many professional organizations and
    clubs in Biology at Tennessee Tech, my greatest
    interest would have to be with the Tech chapter
    of the Wildlife Society. Many professionals and
    agencies react well to jobs seeks that are
    members of the society or certified wildlife
    biologist recognized by the society. I will be
    looking forward to the next meeting and beginning
    my membership. The publication the come along
    with the member will be great references for me
    to use in the future. This information provided
    by the clubs and organization today was a great
    help. They helped me to better under stand how
    each club works and the goals of each.
