Doctor of Philosophy in Population Biology, Ecology, and Evolution

The study of the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that give rise to the spatial and temporal dynamics of populations and species is one of the most exciting and rapidly advancing areas of modern science. The general field of Population Biology integrates biological mechanism across many levels of organization, from the molecular forces leading to the evolution of genome organization to large interconnected networks of species in complex ecological systems. Scientists in this challenging area must consequently cross the normal boundary lines dividing traditional disciplines and employ complex, multidisciplinary approaches to begin to understand the evolution, organization and dynamics of natural populations.

The graduate program in Population Biology, Ecology, and Evolution provides the multidisciplinary training required for a successful research and teaching career. The program allows the student to learn currently accepted scientific facts and theories, learn to plan, conduct and critically evaluate experiments, make an original contribution to scientific knowledge, become skilled in oral and written communication, and become self-sufficient in continuing education beyond graduate school. The program also prepares the student to teach Population Biology, Ecology, and Evolution and related disciplines in professional and graduate schools.
