Many organizations come together to fulfill the mission of the Murie Science and Learning Center (MSLC) through cooperation, partnerships, and sharing of resources. Our partner organizations include non-profits, educational institutions and business partners.
Managing Organizations
The National Park Service runs the MSLC with the assistance of a Managing Partner, as outlined in the MSLC Management Plan. Since the inception of the MSLC in 2003, the Managing Partner has been Alaska Geographic. The Park Service has executive authority over all MSLC programs and facilities, while Alaska Geographic runs many free and fee-based programs that provide critical revenue towards promoting science education in Denali and other MSLC partner parks.

NPS preserves natural and cultural resources and values for the enjoyment, education and inspiration of this and future generations.
