Research Assistants

What We Do

The Utton Center conducts scholarly and applied research as part of its core mission and engages student research assistants to support in these efforts. Through experiential learning students have the opportunity to enhance their academic, policy, and legal research and writing skills, get exposure to natural resources policy and practice, attend conferences and forums, and work with partners and experts in the field.  Students participate in research in the field, webinars, and opportunities for professional development.

For more information on student research assistant opportunities contact Adrian Oglesby.
