Commissioned by the United States Congress, the NCWQR supports the sustainable use of soil and water resources and helps protect human health and the ecological integrity of aquatic ecosystems through research, monitoring, education, and outreach.
The team performs research such as chemical analysis of freshwater samples, biological assessment of aquatic communities, and watershed modeling throughout the Great Lakes region. The NCWQR has been at the forefront of the algae crisis in the northwest Ohio area.
Located in Heidelberg’s Gillmor Science Hall, the NCWQR is a unique and exciting feature of our campus. As a student, you have access to a world-class lab and can work side by side with professional scientists. The lab offers Heidelberg students unique internship and research opportunities in biology, chemistry, water resources, and geology.
