Research

We are extremely proud of the research efforts happening on the Moscow campus and in our neighboring forests, streams and rangelands. We believe the benefits of an active research community spill over to all aspects of our teaching and outreach endeavors. By getting out there, testing theories, and analyzing ecological processes, you’ll begin to think like a natural resource professional. These experiences will help you learn how to communicate and collaborate with others to solve problems. You’ll also learn how to develop best practices for building a healthy and sustainable future where we can all thrive.

Better Together
We also team with other programs and both public and private groups to set our strategic and tactical research goals. And with all of our research projects built around student participation and contributions, learning opportunities are endless. You’ll discover how to apply scientific methods to examine current natural resource issues, like balancing the need for forest products with maintaining healthy and sustainable forests. Together, our efforts will lead to bold discoveries that will shape our world.
