| The College of Natural Resources maintains a very active research program in a variety of areas. Annual funding support for research is over $11,000,000, of which nearly $6,000,000 comes from grants and contracts to college faculty. Opportunities for undergraduates and graduate students to participate in research programs, as part of their degree program or as summer employment and study, include research on the ecology of endangered species, restoration of damaged ecosystems, wildlife habitat management, remote sensing and analysis of the environment, wilderness issues, and environmental policy analysis. |
