About KEEP

Our goals:

To bring children to the tallgrass prairie to increase their understanding of this remarkable ecosystem and to instill a sense of place and pride in their environment.

To allow students to participate in hands-on ecological research to increase their knowledge of the scientific process and the significance of research.

To share with the public the latest scientific research and emphasize the importance of research in grassland conservation and management.

Konza Prairie Biological Station

KPBS is operated as a field research station by the KSU Division of Biology. The station is dedicated to a three-fold mission of long-term ecological research, education, and prairie conservation. It is a unique outdoor laboratory that provides opportunities for the study of tallgrass prairie ecosystems and for basic biological research on a wide range of taxa and processes. The station is open to scientists and students from throughout the world.
