Engaged Scholarship

Warner College researchers partner with communities to study and solve natural resource challenges, pairing scientific expertise with the local knowledge of the people who live and work on the land. That collaboration makes our solutions practical, durable, and grounded in what communities actually need to thrive.

Our impact reaches well beyond campus. We equip land managers, conservation professionals, and other practitioners with the latest research and best practices to steward natural resources effectively. And through our many centers and institutes, we connect with practitioners and communities around the world.

College Centers and Institutes

Our College is home to more than a dozen research centers and institutes that offer support, capacity building, and research to communities and practitioners on a wide array of topics. These groups perform work across Colorado, throughout the U.S., and worldwide. Warner College students can intern with many of these groups, gaining valuable work experience that helps prepare them for natural resources and environmental careers.

Warner College Extension Faculty

Our extension faculty are here to help everyone. They engage with community members and agencies on issues related to forest pests, wildlife management, wildfire mitigation and recovery, rangelands management, and more.
