Read Wildfire Magazine (https://www.iawfonline.org/wildfire-magazine) and the International Journal of Wildland Fire (https://www.iawfonline.org/international-journal-wildland-fire-ijwf) to learn more about the field. Talk to wildland firefighters to learn more about educational requirements, training, and job responsibilities, among other topics. Perhaps your school’s career services department could organize a career day in which firefighters discuss their work. Participate in fire science camps that are offered by fire departments, government agencies, and technical colleges to obtain experience. Visit https://www.womeninfire.org/firefighters/fire-camps for a list of fire camps for young women.
