The Howard Hughes Medical Institute New Generation Program for Scientific Teaching
The goal of the New Generation Program is to develop an entire generation of new resources to enhance undergraduate biology education. We promote the participation of graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, the HHMI Teaching Fellows, as vital educational resources by providing them the training necessary to become outstanding mentors and classroom teachers. We study the impact of this training on participating Fellows, the undergraduates they teach, and the faculty advisors with whom they work.

Colorado Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit
The Unit works toward three basic objectives: research, education, and technical assistance. The Unit emphasizes research related to specific management problems where results have a high probability of being applied. The program remains flexible to reflect changing cooperators' needs. The long-term fishery effort emphasizes a diversity of applied management projects having broad statewide and regional applicability. The wildlife component of the Unit emphasizes sampling and analysis of quantitative methodologies for management. The fisheries and wildlife activities are diverse and integrated with Unit cooperators. The results of research are transferred through formal graduate teaching and technical extension.
