Yes
A brief description of the legally protected areas, internationally recognized areas, priority sites for biodiversity, and/or regions of conservation importance:
Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area (RNA), 5,370 acres
A complete, intact watershed land montane ecosystem located in the Wasatch Mountain foothills east of the University of Utah. In 1969, the U.S. Forest Service designated Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area, one of the last remaining undisturbed basins in the Great Basin. In accordance with Forest Service regulations, the RNA is closed to public entry. Research and education within the Red Butte Canyon RNA are allowed, but there are a number of restrictions. Permits are required for all activities within the RNA, including one-time field trips.

Red Butte Creek
Red Butte Creek watershed basin encompasses 11 square miles in the Wasatch Mountains foothills and feeds 10.5 miles of stream that flows through the Red Butte Canyon RNA, Red Butte Garden and the University of Utah campus on its way to the Jordan River. In 2014, the Board of Trustees voted to establish a 100 ft. riparian corridor buffer zone around Red Butte Creek. The creek is part of a protected watershed managed by Salt Lake County.

University of Utah Heritage Preserve, 496 acre
In 2002, University of Utah and Utah Open Lands signed a conservation easement to preserve undeveloped land bordering the eastern edge of the University of Utah and Research Park. Under the agreement, the University and the general public will have access to the Heritage Preserve for hiking, non-motorized biking, photography, and nature study. The Bonneville Shoreline Trail passes through the Preserve. In 2021 almost 5 additional acres were added.

Bonneville Shoreline Trail, 3.3 miles adjacent to University of Utah campus
The Bonneville Shoreline Trail concept began in 1990 as an effort to preserve a heavily used mountain biking, jogging, and walking pathway along the urban/wild interface in the Wasatch Mountain foothills. By 1992 the University of Utah agreed to a recreation corridor to connect through Research Park and the University Medical Center area to Dry Creek Canyon to the North. University of Utah trailheads include, Dry Creek Trailhead, Red Butte Creek Road Trailhead, and Emigration Canyon Trailhead.

Range Creek Field Station, 3,027 acres
An outdoor museum located in Utah’s West Tavaputs Plateau, with over 500 archeological sites dating from A.D.900-A.D. 1200. Range creek represents an exceptional intact mid-elevation watershed. Access to the Range Creek Field Station is administered by the Natural History Museum of Utah and is limited to pedestrian and horse traffic.

State Arboretum of Utah/ Red Butte Garden and Arboretum , 1,647 acres
The University of Utah campus, including Red Butte Garden and Arboretum, is part of the State Arboretum of Utah which covers 1,500 acres to the east of the University of Utah campus, plus an additional 147 acres that includes the Red Butte Garden and Arboretum. The Arboretum was established in 1961 and includes over 8,000 trees of 300 different species. Red Butte Garden and Arboretum (100 acres) is part of the University of Utah. About 75 acres of the garden are natural lands, and 25 acres are designated for gardens and facilities.

Matheson Nature Preserve and Governors Groves (14 acres)
Adjacent to Research Park, managed by Scott M. Matheson Park Foundation. This urban nature preserve contains trees and vegetation present in the Salt Lake Valley when the pioneers arrived in 1847. Along the extensive walking paths, visitors encounter native vegetation such as Big Sagebrush, Pinyon Pine, Hawthorn, Wild Roses, Rabbitbrush, and Chokecherry trees.
This is the Place Heritage Park
Part of the Utah State Parks system, this park has over 50 historic buildings and historical interpreters, and trail rides. It is adjacent to Research Park and the Matheson Nature Preserve. The Bonneville Shoreline Trail follows the park boundary.

Wasatch Mountain Foothills Open Space (U.S. Forest Service, Salt Lake Ranger District)
Vast acreage of U.S. National Forest Service (USFS) property lies to the east of Salt Lake City adjacent to the University of Utah. The USFS property is typically steep, mountainous terrain accessible only by foot trails. Wasatch Mountain Foothills provide an important habitat for wildlife and critical winter range for mule deer. Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County planning supports keeping this property in public ownership, undeveloped, with pedestrian access. The 216,000 acres comprising the Salt Lake Ranger District are often referred to as an "urban forest" due to their close proximity to Salt Lake City, the Intermountain west's largest and fastest growing metropolitan area. The mountainous terrain provides recreation opportunities for more than a million people in less than a 30 minute drive. 60% of the drinking water for Salt Lake City residents comes from land managed by the Salt Lake Ranger District under the "Wasatch-Cache National Forest Plan (2003).

Endangered and vulnerable species
Yes
A list of endangered and vulnerable species with habitats on land owned or managed by the institution, by level of extinction risk:
June sucker (Chasmistes liorus)
IUCN Red List: Critically Endangered; ESA: Listed as Endangered in 1986.
Since 2004 Red Butte Reservoir has hosted a refuge population of June sucker, (Chasmistes liorus) a unique lake sucker native to Utah Lake. June suckers have been proposed for reclassification to Threatened; (84 FR 65080 (11/26/2019)- Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Reclassification of the Endangered June Sucker to Threatened with a Section 4(d) Rule. https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2019-11-26/2019-25549 )
Bonneville Cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki utah),
A native western subspecies historically found in the Bonneville Basin, and designated as the state fish of Utah. Until February 28, 1996, Bonneville cutthroat trout were considered candidate species for Federal listing. They are managed under a Utah Division of Natural Resources “Range-wide conservation agreement and strategy for Bonneville cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki utah), 2000 in order to “eliminate the threats to Bonneville cutthroat trout that: (1) warrant listing as a sensitive species by state and Federal agencies, and (2) may warrant listing as a threatened or endangered species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended.” After a 2010 oil spill, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources re-stocked Red Butte Creek with Bonneville cutthroat trout.

Methodologies
If yes to either of the above, provide the following:
Wasatch Environmental Observatory
The 2085 km2 Jordan River Basin, and its seven sub-catchments draining the Central Wasatch Range immediately east of Salt Lake City, UT, are home to an array of hydrologic, atmospheric, climatic and chemical research infrastructure that collectively forms the Wasatch Environmental Observatory (WEO). Current infrastructure supports both basic and applied research in atmospheric chemistry, biogeochemistry, climate, ecology, hydrology, meteorology, resource management and urban redesign that is augmented through strong partnerships with cooperating agencies.
URL: https://environment.utah.edu/weo/
Red Butte Canyon RNA
The University of Utah offers courses in Biology, Ecology, Geology, and Meteorology with lab experiences involving the Red Butte Canyon RNA. These courses have generated flora and fauna lists, weather stations, hydrological data, GIS shape files.

Bonderman Field Station, Bird Banding
The bird banding operation at Bonderman Field Station at Rio Mesa is an ongoing partnership with the Sekercioglu Lab since 2011. Researchers capture and band birds to gain valuable insights into population size, community structure, the timing of migration, and how avian groups are responding to anthropogenic threats
URL: https://bonderman-station.utah.edu/research/bird_banding.php
Range Creek Field Station
Researchers associated with the Garrett Herbarium (Natural History Museum of Utah) and Records of Environment and Disturbance Lab (Dept. of Geography) are using multiple lines of inquiry to reconstruct the climatic history of Range Creek Canyon including stratigraphic profiles, sediment cores and pack rat middens. In 2009, the Range Creek Research Project installed a permanent commercial-grade weather station. Beginning in 2011, the Field Station has coordinated monitoring studies designed to provide quantitative baseline data to better manage its conservation values.

State Arboretum of Utah/ Red Butte Garden and Arboretum
Conducts conservation research focusing on the flora of the Intermountain West, with a particular focus on two ecoregions in Utah - the Colorado Plateau and the Great Basin. The Red Butte Garden Plant Conservation and Research Department focuses on conserving rare plants, developing useful plants and improving wild land development.
