Inspiring Excellence
Dr. Thomas D. Sisk was a pioneer in science-based landscape-level analysis of wildlife habitat and the engagement of diverse voices in conservation planning. His research and teaching focused on the science-policy interface to inform on-the-ground management and policy development. He taught ecology, conservation biology, and environmental policy and retired from NAU the summer of 2021. The Thomas D Sisk Graduate Fellowship in Conservation Science will serves as a tool to recruit and support the next generation of conservation leaders who mirror the diverse demographics of the communities of the southwest.
