专业概况

在这里学什么？

Evolution, ecology and behavior encompass those aspects of the life and environmental sciences that characterize how organisms interact with each other and their environment, and how those interactions change over time. The graduate program in evolution, ecology and behavior is an interdisciplinary program that brings faculty and students with research and teaching interests in these fields, into a single graduate program creating a coordinated and focused approach to graduate education. The program is designed to train researchers, educators, managers and regulators in the study of evolution, ecology, and behavior.

Students will master the knowledge and techniques required to work in a wide range of professional positions. The program prepares students for further graduate work (PhD) or research, teaching and administrative positions in both the public and private sectors as well as academia.

The MS typically requires 2+ years to complete coursework, research project and the thesis. The following describes a typical MS student’s program.

Coursework

Students are required to complete 30 credit hours, 18 of which are formal courses. Two of these formal courses must be the Colloquium in Evolutionary Biology and Ecology (BIO553, APY550, GLY555, and GLY555SEM – DIT).

Students are also required to take a minimum of three courses from the following:

APY 546 Physical Anthropology Topics APY 547 Ethology Practicum BIO 500 Bioinformatics BIO 507 Advanced Ecology BIO 556 Evolutionary Genetics GEO 506 Geographical Information Systems GEO 515 Conservation Biogeography GLY 558 Macroevolution

The purpose of the requirement is to promote interdisciplinary training and the three courses must be distributed across more than one department. Students are also expected to acquire appropriate quantitative skills.

Students are expected to design a program, along with their adviser, that best fits their particular needs and interests. Therefore, various courses can be chosen throughout departments to fulfill the formal course credit requirements (see Courses).

Students may petition the GAC for credit for graduate courses taken at other institutions.

All students are required to attend the Program’s seminar series, as well as relevant departmental seminars across the disciplines represented within the Graduate Group.
