Environmental education at the field station.

The mission of the Malheur Field Station is rooted in environmental education. The station hosts university field classes and educational visits by local schools.

We are actively working to bring more formal educational opportunities back to the field station.

Are you a K-12 science teacher looking for an outdoor educational experience for your students?

We can work with you to develop a day-trip or overnight program to align with your curriculum goals.

We also have plans to develop ready-to-use NGSS aligned curriculum for each grade band.
