Research & Education: Programs

American Indian Research Opportunities (AIRO)
AIRO provides educational and research opportunities for American Indian students in career fields where they are significantly under-represented. AIRO is a consortium of Montana's seven tribal colleges (Blackfeet Community College, Dull Knife Memorial College, Fort Belknap College, Fort Peck Community College, Little Big Horn College, Salish Kootenai College, and Stone Child College) and MSU-Bozeman.

The Big Sky Institute
The Big Sky Institute for Science and Natural History (BSI) promotes the distribution of science-based knowledge related to natural ecosystems and the human communities that depend on them.


BRIN (Montana Network for Biomedical Research Opportunities)
The Montana Network for Biomedical Research Opportunities offers faculty, undergraduate and graduate students throughout Montana enhanced research opportunities in the biomedical sciences.


Complex Biological Systems
The central goal of the program in Complex Biological Systems is to prepare a new generation of biological scientists broadly equipped to exploit advanced experimental and computational techniques to understand complex biological systems.


Consortium for the Agricultural Soils Mitigation of Greenhouse Gases (CASMGS)
CASMGS is a consortium of nine universities and one national laboratory assembled to investigate the potential of agricultural soils to mitigate greenhouse gases.


Economics of Climate Change and Greenhouse Gas Mitigation
This research program investigates issues facing the agricultural sector due to climate change, including the impact of climate change on U.S. cropping systems, and focuses on how to design programs to sequester carbon in agricultural soils.


Inland Northwest Research Alliance (INRA)
The Inland Northwest Research Alliance is a non-profit scientific and educational organization made up of eight western research universities, including MSU-Bozeman. INRA is a partner in the management and operation of the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory in Idaho Falls.

The central consortium office acts as a statewide clearinghouse for information on NASA and other aerospace-related programs and takes an active role in alerting consortium faculty about opportunities in research and education with NASA and other space agencies.


NSF Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR)
EPSCoR, the Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research, identifies, develops and utilizes the state's academic science and technology resources. The program is designed to stimulate local action that will result in lasting improvements to the state's academic research infrastructure and increased national R&D competitiveness.


Northern Plains Transition to Teaching
The Northern Plains Transition to Teaching program moves seasoned professionals with established records of excellence into new careers in public school classrooms.


Tradeoff Analysis Project
The project has developed a decision-support system for assessing tradeoffs between agricultural production and the environmental and human health impacts of agriculture for different agricultural, environmental and health technologies and policies.
