PhD &MS Graduate Study in Ecology, Evolution & Conservation Biology -
Bowling Green State University
The Graduate Program in Ecology, Evolution & Conservation Biology at
Bowling Green State University is actively recruiting both MS and PhD
students for admission in Fall 2008. Housed in the Department of
Biological Sciences, major areas of research include:
AQUATIC ECOLOGY (behavior, evolution, microbial limnology, and fisheries),
CONSERVATION BIOLOGY (invasion biology, habitat assessment and
restoration, ecological genetics),
and
POPULATION and COMMUNITY DYNAMICS (plant-animal interactions,
predator-prey dynamics)
>Prospective students are encouraged to contact the following faculty
