The Southwestern Research Station is operated by the American Museum of Natural History, a nonprofit research and educational institution. All income from fees is used to help defray the operating costs of the Station. The Museum subsidizes scientific research at the Station by assuming annual deficits and investing in capital improvements.
The Station provides lodging for visiting researchers in private or shared rooms. Meals are included with the price of lodging and are provided in a common dining room.
Special discounted rates are offered to researchers for lodging and meals. To qualify for researcher rates, you must have a research application and proposal on file. To qualify for student rates you must be in a degree seeking program and have a research proposal on file, or be listed as a student assistant on a researcher application.
