As an interdisciplinary program, we combine knowledge and perspectives from multiple academic departments and colleges across the university. Because the NRES program does not belong to a single department, we rely on a dedicated team of university staff and faculty members, our Steering Committee, to ensure the program continues to prosper. The committee makes important decisions for curriculum development, allowing the program to maintain diverse and exciting opportunities for students by delivering a wide range of expertise, advice and recommendations. The Steering Committee collaborates to guide the NRES program.
