Welcome
Located on the main campus of Miami University (Oxford, Ohio), the Center for Environmental Education (CEE) is a comprehensive natural science and science education resource for diverse audiences. The Center enables learners of all ages—from primary students to undergraduates to retirees—to enhance their understanding of and appreciation for biodiversity, conservation and ecology. The Center is composed of three core components: The Hefner Zoology Museum, the GREEN Teachers Institute and the Biosphere Project.
