Ke hāʻawi nei ʻo Oregon State University i nā ʻoihana waiwai kūlohelohe i kahi ala hou a maʻalahi e holomua i kā lākou ʻoihana ma ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka ʻāina mua ma ka pūnaewele. palapala puka ma ka ululāʻau kūlanakauhale. Hoʻohui ka palapala hōʻoia i ka ʻike o OSU ma ka ulu lāʻau me kona kaulana ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi aupuni ma ka hoʻonaʻauao pūnaewele e hāʻawi i nā haumāna i kahi ʻano hoʻonaʻauao pili e hoʻolako maikaʻi iā lākou no ka mālama ʻana i nā kumulāʻau i loko a puni nā kūlanakauhale.
"ʻAʻohe manawa ʻē aʻe e like me kēia ma US kahi e hiki ai i kahi ʻoihana hana ke loaʻa ka hoʻonaʻauao pae kiʻekiʻe ma ka ululāʻau kūlanakauhale ma ka pūnaewele a hoʻomau i kā lākou ʻoihana, hānai ʻohana a noho paha ma ko lākou mokuʻāina home," wahi a Paul Ries, ka luna palapala hōʻoia a me ke kumu aʻo ma OSU's College of Forestry. "Hāʻawi ia i ka hoʻonui ʻana i ke komo ʻana i kahi hoʻonaʻauao kiʻekiʻe ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke loaʻa." Manaʻo ʻia ʻo Oregon State ʻo ia kekahi o nā ʻoihana alakaʻi o ka honua no ka hoʻonaʻauao ulu lāʻau, ua helu ʻia ma ka 10 kiʻekiʻe ma kahi noiʻi honua i nā makahiki ʻelua i hala. Wahi a Ries, ʻo kēia papahana ululāʻau kūlanakauhale mua loa e hoʻoikaika i ka inoa honua o OSU.
Hāʻawi ʻia ma ka pūnaewele e OSU Ecampus, hāʻawi ka palapala hōʻaiʻē 18 a 20 i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa kūpono no ka poʻe makemake e neʻe i mua - a i ʻole e kau i ko lākou wāwae i ka puka - i ka ʻoihana ulu lāʻau kūlanakauhale. Hiki i nā haumāna ke hoʻohana i ka palapala hōʻoia ma ke ʻano he kumu no ka 45-credit Master of Natural Resources graduate degree o Oregon State ma ka pūnaewele. "He nui ka poʻe e hana ana ma ke kula ʻaʻole i loaʻa ke kēkelē a i ʻole ka palapala hōʻoia i ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo 'ka ululāʻau kūlanakauhale' no ka mea ʻaʻole lōʻihi ia," wahi a Ries. "E wehe maoli kēia i nā puka i loaʻa ʻole i ka poʻe ma mua."
ʻO ka ululāʻau kūlanakauhale, ma ka maʻalahi, pili i ka mālama ʻana i nā kumulāʻau kahi a mākou e hana ai, noho ai a pāʻani ai. He hana ia i hoʻomaka i nā kenekulia i ʻAmelika, akā ʻaʻole i hoʻokumu ʻia ka huaʻōlelo a hiki i ka makahiki 1970. Ke hoʻomaka nei ka nui o nā kūlanakauhale o ka ʻāina e hoʻolilo i nā kumuwaiwai hou aʻe i ka ʻenehana ʻōmaʻomaʻo, ua hana ʻia nā hana hou aʻe e kōkua i ka hoʻolālā ʻana i ke kulekele a me ka hoʻolālā. "Ke wehewehe nei nā lāʻau i ko mākou mau wahi ākea, inā he ʻāpana ʻoihana a i ʻole kahi paka kahi a mākou e kau ai i ka hopena pule," wahi a Ries. "ʻO nā kumulāʻau ka mea maʻamau. Hāʻawi lākou i ko mākou mau wahi i kahi manaʻo o kahi a hāʻawi iā mākou i nā pono kaiapuni, waiwai a me ka pilikanaka. He kuleana nui lākou i ka noho ʻana o ko mākou mau kūlanakauhale. "
Hoʻopili ka papa palapala palapala i nā kumuhana e kōkua i ka poʻe ʻoihana e hoʻonui i ko lākou ʻike a me kā lākou mākaukau. ʻO nā papa i koi ʻia e pili ana i ke alakaʻi ʻana i nā ululāʻau kūlanakauhale, ka hoʻolālā ʻana i nā ululāʻau kūlanakauhale, ke kulekele a me ka hoʻokele ʻana, a me nā ʻenehana ʻōmaʻomaʻo. Hiki i nā haumāna ke koho mai nā ʻano koho like ʻole, me ka Arboriculture, Ecological Restoration, a me Geographic Information Systems.
Pono nā haumāna e hoʻopau i kahi papahana capstone ululāʻau kūlanakauhale, e hāʻawi iā lākou i ke aʻo aʻoaʻo hoʻokahi mai ke kumu OSU a i ʻole nā mea ʻoihana waiwai kūlohelohe ma ko lākou wahi.
"E hana pū mākou me nā haumāna ma nā wahi a pau a lākou e noho ai, no laila ʻaʻole ʻo ka capstone he hōʻike kūpono wale nō o nā mea a lākou i aʻo ai akā he mea hiki iā lākou ke hoʻohana ma ke ʻano he puna i kahi ʻoihana ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi."
I nā makahiki i hala iho nei, ua loaʻa iā OSU Ecampus ka ʻike ʻia ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea hoʻolako maikaʻi loa o ka hoʻonaʻauao pūnaewele ma ka lāhui, mai US News & World Report, SuperScholar a me nā keʻena kūlana ʻē aʻe. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā pae hoʻohālikelike i nā kumu e like me ka maikaʻi o ka haʻawina, nā hōʻoia kumu, ke komo ʻana o nā haumāna, ka hauʻoli o nā haumāna a me nā ʻokoʻa koho koho.
