Students & Faculty

Utah State University is Carnegie Research I University. Within the institution are scores of faculty-led programs that partly focus on research that informs federal and state agencies that manage the Colorado River and that informs non-government organizations about critical issues facing the Colorado River. For some Utah State faculty, the Colorado River is one of many geographic foci; for other faculty, the Colorado River is their life passion.
