Citizen Science

You don’t need to be a scientist to participate in science. Throughout history, important discoveries about the natural world have been made by citizen scientists—like you—with a keen eye for observation and a passion for nature.

• Are you curious about the plants and animals living in Utah?
• Would you like to help answer questions about Utah’s dynamic biodiversity?
• Are you interested in developing your skills for exploring and understanding the natural world?
• Looking for a great way to spend time outside?

Join one of the NHMU’s citizen science projects dedicated to exploring and recording Utah’s biodiversity. Check out project details below. We can’t do it without you!
