The Idaho Center for Potato Research and Education is a virtual center made up of faculty
and staff located at the University of Idaho campus, four research and education centers, and numerous
county extension offices. The mission of the Idaho Center for Potato Research and Education (ICPRE) is
to coordinate and link all aspects of research, extension, and academic programs related to potatoes at
the University of Idaho for the purpose of advancing the science of potatoes. ICPRE is associated with
the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) and is administered by the dean of the College.
CALS advances the health and welfare of people, animals, and the environment through research and
education in agriculture, community, human and rural development, environment and natural resources,
food and nutrition, and the life sciences. CALS strives to improve the nation's food supply and maintain
its safety, to enhance the environment, and to help people improve their lives. Students at the College
are undergraduates, graduate students, and community members all over Idaho. With seven academic
departments and nearly 1,100 undergraduates, CALS is the second largest college at the University of
Idaho.
