Research
One of the biggest priorities for the University of Arkansas Museum is to make our collections accessible for research and learning. With our wide-ranging collections, there are a variety of opportunities for research.
Here are a few examples of past research efforts at the Museum:
- A retired Environmental Protection Agency scientist doing independent research on the land snails of Arkansas for an upcoming book and a faculty member determining distributions of Bewick’s wrens.
- University classes in ornithology, ecology, herpetology, mammalogy, and classics borrow specimens for class use or visit the University Collections Facility to view fragile specimens.
- A research station archaeologist for the Arkansas Archeological Survey studies Ozark Plateau bluff shelter seeds to understand prehistoric plant domestication.
