Pre-Conference Short Courses

The following short courses, held on Sunday June 18th, are offered in conjunction with Fish Passage 2017. Short course fees are in addition to the cost of conference registration. Attendees can register for short courses during the online conference registration process. 

Important Notice: Due to university graduation ceremonies and overlapping sports events, lodging in Corvallis around the time of the conference will be in high demand.  If you plan on arriving to Corvallis prior to June 18, 2017, you may have problems booking a room in any of the local hotels. Fortunately, we have managed to secure on campus accommodations at the new Oregon State University residence hall, where you can book very affordable single and double occupancy rooms for as many nights as you may need between June 17 and June 23. Please make an effort to reserve your accommodations as early as possible and always check hotel cancellation policies. We apologize for the inconvenience.
