FOREST RESEARCH INSTITUTE Forest Research Institute (FRI), Dehradun has its roots in the erstwhile Imperial Forest Research Institute established in 1906 to organise and lead forestry research in the country. The institute also administered training to forest officers and forest rangers in the country. After independence it was named as Forest Research Institute and Colleges. In 1988, FRI and its research centres were brought under the administrative umbrella of Indian Council of Forestry Research and Education (ICFRE) under the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change, Government of India. The green and black circular emblem of the university has a flower of an orchid placed in a green circle surrounded by a white border which carries the name and place of the university in Devanagari and English.
