Oklahoma State University received a $599,000 Project Grant from the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI), CFDA 10.310, awarded September 1, 2026, with completion targeted for August 31, 2030. The award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REEU) program designed to recruit and train 40 talented undergraduate students from rural communities attending community colleges, two-year technical schools, and universities without doctoral programs. Through this initiative, fellows will develop expertise in forest science research methods, science communication, and extension practices using real-world projects, workshops, and field trips conducted in partnership with faculty mentors at Oklahoma State University's Stillwater campus. The program delivers comprehensive workforce development and research outputs across a four-year period. Fellows will conduct impactful research projects focused on forest assessment, management, and long-term conservation while participating in weekly update meetings, professional development workshops, and field trips. Upon program conclusion, each fellow will present their research findings at a symposium. By leveraging Oklahoma State University's proximity to diverse forest systems, wood products industry expertise, and rural communities, this REEU initiative aims to address declining forestry undergraduate enrollment while simultaneously producing actionable research and conservation methods that advance forest management practices for future generations.
