QERM: An Interdisciplinary Graduate Program


Research

Research and Training Centers

At the University of Washington the curriculum and research activities in natural resources and the environment are extensive, broad in scope, and of very high quality. Across all three campuses, UW has about 400 faculty, 1,200 graduate students, and 4,800 undergraduates in degree programs in environmental and natural resource fields. Funding of sponsored programs in these areas at UW add up to about $150M each year. Although most of this funding is in focused disciplinary projects, our faculty have also won many large, interdisciplinary grants to tackle a wide range of big problems, from climate change to air pollution to oceanic toxins. Quietly, over time, UW has become one of the of the largest and most important environmental research universities in the country.
