GRADUATE OPPORTUNITIES IN ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY
The Graduate Program in Ecology and Evolution
<http://www.stonybrook.edu/ecoevo/index.html>at Stony Brook University
is recruiting doctoral and
master’s level graduate students for Fall 2019.
The department has a long and distinguished history, being one of the first
of its kind. It currently has a productive and diverse faculty working on
broad array of questions involving microbes, plants, vertebrate and
invertebrate animals and whole ecosystems. Field locales span the globe
from the old and new world tropics to the Arctic and Antarctic polar
regions, as well as the uplands, wetlands and coastal areas of Long Island
and nearby New York City.
Upon admission, PhD students are guaranteed teaching assistantships upon
acceptance, with additional support available through fellowships and
research assistantships, as they become available. The deadlines for
applications are* Dec. 1, 2018* for the PhD program. Admissions to the MA
program are rolling until *April 15, 2019.*
Below is a listing of current local program faculty to whom questions can
be directed. It is* highly* recommended that PhD applicants contact
potential advisors before submitting your application. For questions or
assistance with the application process please e-mail our Graduate Program
coordinator, Melissa Cohen melissa.j.cohen@stonybrook.edu.
