- The Environmental Joint Campus Conference (JCC) has been an annual event that helps bring together graduate students and faculty from three programs: the Environmental Sciences Program at Oregon State University, the Environmental Sciences and Management Program at Portland State University, and the Environmental Studies Program at the University of Oregon. The one-day conference creates an opportunity for graduate students and faculty from each of the three programs to present their diverse research interests to a larger community of environmental scholars The JCC will be hosted by PSU this spring term and the date is TBD. All students are welcome to attend the conference. Corvallis Campus ESGP students are expected to sign up just one time for ENSC 508 for one credit during their tenure as a graduate student and present a poster.
