What we do...
The O’Connor Center for the Rocky
Mountain West is a regional studies and public education program of The
University of Montana in Missoula. Its work focuses on the Interior West
of North America – the region straddling the Rocky Mountains of the United
States and Canada. Through cross-disciplinary, applied programs in public
education, research, and teaching, the O'Connor Center explores the region’s
rich history and culture, current challenges, and emerging opportunities.

Our Mission...
More than anything else, the O’Connor
Center is meant to be a competent and trusted “resource” for key decision
makers and stakeholders in the state and region in understanding the region’s
past and present condition and key challenges and opportunities for the future. |
