SER’s Student Association Program enables students to come together and connect with both emerging and seasoned restoration professionals across SER’s global network, participate in SER conferences, and take advantage of resources.

Organized and run by students, student associations can be formed at any accredited academic institution and provide a means for those students interested in pursuing a career in some facet of ecological restoration to come together in a likeminded group. The program was established in 2007 and can be formed by a motivated student group in collaboration with faculty and with support from their host institution.

The annual base fee covers the cost SER membership for (1) faculty advisor and all participating students. Individuals must register with SER to receive benefits and be recognized as active members of the SER/Student Association.
