With the amount of depleting resources on our planet, there evolves a need for sustainable management of the earth's natural resources. Natural Resource Management is a discipline that focuses on sustaining and maintaining these depleting natural resources like water, energy, and minerals. This includes managing fresh water and other major natural resources that are being burned out under the compulsion of anthropogenic demands. The resistance and regenerating power of various natural resources have exceeded their natural ability owing to the demands of human activities. This has increased the importance of this discipline, especially in the present world.

Natural Resource Management is an interdisciplinary field of study and needs a holistic approach in order to resolve the pressing concern of the burning out of natural resources. It is closely related to disciplines like Biology, Social Sciences, Geography, Geology, and Economics. The study program includes lectures, fieldwork, laboratory tutorials, and practical work so that students learn how to apply their knowledge to real-world situations. Natural Resource Management students learn how to understand and analyse, find solutions to, and educate the public about complex environmental problems.

This field provides a massive area of study generating a colossal amount of employment opportunities across various fields. Students come up with ways to manage land and water resources required to meet human demands and promote sustainability as well as helping to nurture the environment to reach the demands of both the present and future generations.
