Watershed Sciences & Engineering Program

Bucknell makes the most of our proximity to the majestic Susquehanna River through the Watershed Sciences & Engineering Program.

By taking the classroom outdoors, Bucknell connects people to the river and builds upon our existing strengths in science and engineering. Faculty, staff and students partner with local, state and federal organizations on watershed research, stewardship and conservation projects. The Watershed Sciences & Engineering Program consists of 14 field stations throughout the Susquehanna Region and beyond.
