The Marine Global Change Ecology Lab at the University of Massachusetts Amherst is recruiting two graduate students (M.S. or Ph.D.) to begin spring or fall 2018. We use field observations, lab experimentation, and quantitative synthesis to address ecological problems in coastal marine systems. Our research is focused on the following areas of study:

1. Interactions between global environmental change and species interactions

2. Biophysical coupling =96 the interaction between organismal function and physical drivers 3. Causes and consequences of biological invasion

We encourage interested candidates to visit the lab website to learn more about our research and our lab philosophy. https://bscheng.com/opportunities/

Application deadlines for graduate programs are Dec 1/Dec 15 (varies by program)
