<p class="MsoNormal">The Wild Rockies Field Institute is an off-campus study opportunity; WRFI offers academic field-based courses through the University of Montana. Our courses take place in the “Wild Rockies” of North America and combine rigorous academic
inquiry with cultural immersion and extended backcountry expeditions (boating and backpacking sections for 6-12 days at a time). WRFI courses are taught 100% in the field! Students join us from colleges and universities across North America and from a wide
variety of majors; we currently offer courses in Environmental Studies, Natural Resources & Science Management, Native American Studies, Geography, and Philosophy. WRFI’s small group size (10-12 students maximum, with 2 instructors) and interdisciplinary
curriculum offer students an exceptional opportunity to complement their coursework on campus with experiential education in the field. Students can spend a full term with WRFI in the fall, spring or summer as well as take advantage of exciting shorter summer
course offerings such as <i><a href="http://www.wrfi.net/courses/enviroethics.html">Environmental Ethics: Climate Change and Visions of a Sustainable Future</a></i>,
<i><a href="http://www.wrfi.net/courses/restorationecology.html">Restoration Ecology in Greater Yellowstone</a></i>, and
<i><a href="http://www.wrfi.net/courses/cyclemontana.html">Cycle the Rockies: Energy and Climate Change in Montana</a></i>. <o:p></o:p></p>
