The State of the Rockies Project enhances understanding of and action to address socio-environmental challenges in the Rocky Mountain West through collaborative student-faculty research, education, and stakeholder engagement.

Our Goals:

• Facilitate faculty-student collaborative research on critical socio-environmental issues in the Rocky Mountain West.
• Disseminate research through academic publications and presentations.
• Share research and Conservation in the West poll findings with community stakeholders and political leaders.
• Increase campus-wide understanding of the socio-environmental challenges facing the Rocky Mountain Region and what is being done to address these challenges.
