Its interdisciplinary research and education programs link science with action and are integrated across five major areas: freshwater system dynamics; human and ecosystem health; freshwater technology; freshwater economics, policy, and management; and climate and atmospheric sciences. It is the School's goal to be recognized world-wide as the source of expert knowledge on water issues and a catalyst for great ideas that change how people think about and manage water resources. The School's primary research vessel is the NEESKAY, a word derived from the Native American Ho-Chunk people's language in Wisconsin, which translates as “pure clean water.” Originally a U.S. Army T-boat, the Neeskay was reconfigured for research (71 ft LOA, 18 ft beam, 8 ft draft, 62.6 net tons displacement) and provides year-round access to the lakes as a fully functional research platform and laboratory. The Neeskay's research capabilities include wet/dry lab facilities with GPS/sonar display and capabilities for overboard sampling via a starboard hydrographic winch/A-frame and stern winch/A-frame. The vessel also serves as a platform for ROV deployment, research buoy deployment and research SCUBA diving.
