I agree with U. of Alabama - Huntsville (the suggestion and that it’s a safety).

As soon as I was reading your son’s interests with the outdoors, I was thinking about U. of Arkansas which will give generous merit aid to your son and offer all the majors he’s interested in (along with the business school for friends) without much difficulty in terms of switching between majors because of being over capacity.

U. of Arizona has a very well-reputed honors college, outdoors opportunities, would give significant merit aid, and I think would also have sufficient capacity for easily changing majors among those fields (though I’d certainly double-check, here and everywhere).

U. of Minnesota is probably not a safety, but a likely or match. I’ve heard a lot of good things about it, and it’s a great location for internships.

U. of Cincinnati would be a safety and there’s a big focus on co-op learning there. I know that GE built its jet engines there for decades (don’t know if they still do as my relative retired from there a while back).
