About the ERC

The Environmental Resources Center, or ERC, is one of the Centers of Excellence at Purdue im体育 Fort Wayne. The mission of the ERC is to promote the understanding and conservation of the natural resources of the region through scientific research, educational opportunities, and outreach.

Our research projects include work on the ecology of animals and plants, and also on land management practices. Our “staff” is largely engaged Purdue Fort Wayne faculty and their students, both undergraduate and graduate.

In addition to our research endeavors, we actively participate in education and outreach with the community, routinely serving on advisory boards and giving public presentations on a variety of topics.

We invite you to engage with us as works for you. To the right, “like” us on Facebook and sign up for our “monthlyish” newsletter. Sign up with just your name and email (also to right), or take another minute and use the “Join” link above to tell us more about your interests. Thanks!
