Answer to Question 1

Naturally, the discussion will vary. You should expect differences in education required and who the person
would work with to emerge. The scientist would work on research, gathering data in the field or laboratory,
and finding answers to specific research questions. The conservationist prepares conservation plans and works
with individual landowners. The soil engineer works in the field to determine the characteristics of a specific
soil site for construction and other uses.



Answer to Question 2

A high school diploma is the minimum for a technician.
 The conservationist requires at least a bachelor's degree, preferably in agronomy, general agriculture, or soil and
water management.
 The scientist needs a Ph.D., typically in soil science or agronomy.
