Kellogg Biological Station

Kellogg Biological Station (KBS), Michigan State University's largest off-campus education complex, is located by Gull Lake between Kalamazoo, Michigan and Battle Creek, Michigan (about 65 miles from the main campus). Many of the facilities there were originally built by Will Keith Kellogg of Kellogg's cereal, after whom the station is named. KBS includes nearly 16.5 square kilometres of land; combined with nearby state lands and preserves, allow for large-scale studies by the biologists there. Additionally, the National Science Foundation has a Long-Term Ecological Research site at KBS.

Every year, KBS offers classes to undergraduate and graduate students in biology-related fields, including the Enhancing Linkages between Mathematics and Ecology (ELME) program, which consists of three weeks of math and four weeks of field work.
