The Yellowstone River Research Center (YRRC) is a multidisciplinary research institute composed of geologists, ecologists, wildlife biologists, geographers, and social scientists at Rocky Mountain College (Billings, MT). 

The center is positioned in an area that is a microcosm of the northern Rocky Mountain region, where some of the nation’s most pristine environments coincide with ongoing processes of resource extraction, agriculture, industrial activity and increasing human settlement.

A unique feature of the YRRC is the strong emphasis that we place on involving undergraduate students in our projects to better understand these dynamics.



Kayhan Ostovar,  Associate Professor of Environmental Science at Rocky Mountain College, is the director of the YRRC for 2020-21  kayhan.ostovar@rocky.edu
