The Wild Rockies Field Institute (WFRI) will be hosting an information session at the University of Oregon Bike Program. WFRI offers opportunities for undergraduate students to earn upper-division credits while backpacking, kayaking, and bike touring across various landscapes of the Rocky Mountain West. Students on WRFI courses study ecology, history, policy, management, ethics, and other subjects while surrounded by the actual places and people they are learning about. 

The Wild Rockies Field Institute (WRFI) is offering a field study of energy and climate change issues in Montana. Currently accepting applications for our 2020 Cycle the Rockies course, which will take place from June 17 - July 14, 2020.  

Earn upper-division credits in Environmental Studies and Natural Resource Science & Management while spending four weeks bike touring across the state of Montana, from the Great Plains to the Rocky Mountains of Glacier National Park.  Meet with landowners, managers, tribal members, and other stakeholders involved in agricultural operations, energy production, and climate change management and adaptation. The course was recently featured in a story by Trek Bicycles.
