The Great Lakes Center for Environmental Research and Education at Buffalo State College is unique in the SUNY system as the only facility to operate an on-shore experimental laboratory on the Great Lakes and to offer a graduate program in Great Lakes Environmental Studies. On campus, the Center – both as catalyst and facilitator – is a special resource that links high-quality research with graduate and undergraduate education, increasing the college’s role and visibility in the environmental sciences. The Center also serves as a regional resource that promotes activities that enrich the cultural, social, and intellectual lives of the people of western New York.
