Montana State University is located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains in a panoramic setting . Mountains, prairies, and blue-ribbon trout streams are all within minutes of campus. Yellowstone National Park and its world-renowned wildlife and fish populations is 90 miles from campus. Accordingly, much of the Fish and Wildlife Management Program's research is conducted close to campus. Faculty , staff and graduate students in the Program conduct research on the ecology and management of diverse mammal, bird, and fish species.
Special emphasis is directed towards applied work.
The Fish and Wildlife Program has five faculty members in the Ecology Department and two members of the Montana Cooperative Fisheries Research Unit of the National Biological Service, all of who advise graduate students in the curriculum.
