Education
PSRP builds partnerships between the university and public and community entities to increase the public understanding of science and the environment. Education and learning about the environment happens in multiple places through multiple routes. Programs and opportunities we have created, often in collaboration with others, create opportunities for and engage university members in educational activities beyond the university. Products include educational materials for schools, communities, and the general public.

Student OpportunitiesWe create university programs which develop graduate and undergraduate environmental and civic engagement, service learning, and applied research through training and applications to real world contexts. Our Science Education Outreach Program has served (primarily) undergraduates and regional schools and communities for over a decade. The Science Outreach Gallery highlights student created displays. The Community Liaison Program is aimed towards graduate students. Internships related to environmental and community education are available for graduate and undergraduate students. For new openings, see What's New.

Environmental EducationDirected towards educators, our environmental education initiatives with schools and communities promote school and community-based environmental learning, decision making, and stewardship. Publications, guides, and videos are available for downloading or sale, including our state-of-the-art "Return of the Salmon" environmental education curriculum for upper elementary and middle school.
