BSc. in Range Ecology and Biodiversity<\/strong><\/p>\n<strong>Range management and Eco-tourism (RMET):<\/strong> This program was launched in 2007. Pastoralism constitutes a unique and important way of life for a large proportion of the Ethiopia population. There are some 12-15 million agro-pastoralists, living in 7 regions. The pastoralist areas are characterized by unpredictable and unstable climatic conditions as well as ecologically fragile environments. At the same time, the livestock population in the pastoral areas is high with good quality domestic animals being known to be found on these regions. Rangeland covers more than 62% of the total landmass of the country, where mode of life of these people has been dependent on traditional way of living through opportunistic production of range vegetation and livestock products. Furthermore, the pastoral areas are rich in cultural &amp; traditional heritage, flora &amp; fauna diversities, habitat for game and non-game wildlife, recreational opportunities, valuable minerals and other resources which could lead to good tourism industry in the areas.<br \/>\nIn order to maintain natural resources management, the role of ecotourism will have a great impact more in the rangeland regions where the widest conservation areas of the country are located. Moreover, incorporating elements of ecotourism in the program for applying the principles of sustainable development to everyday life of agro-pastoral people in the areas are paramount.\n<p><strong>2.1.
