The program is planned by the student and a member of the EEOB graduate faculty who acts as her/his research advisor so as to meet the student's individual needs and interests. The student and research advisor select an advisory committee that is also involved in suggesting courses and planning the graduate program of the student.

Graduate students have found employment in academia, in state and federal wildlife preservation divisions, and in for-profit organizations across the country. 

We provide PhD and MS students with the skills needed to conduct original research and qualify for rewarding careers in our discipline.  EEOB encompasses the study of animals, plants, and microbes in their relationships among themselves and their environments, and in their common ancestry.  We ask questions about how nature works, from individual genes to entire ecosystems and at time scales of minutes to millennia.  Our successful graduate students have found employment in academia, in state and federal agencies, and in ecological/life science organizations and businesses across the country.
