*********** PLEASE POST, FORWARD, AND DISTRIBUTE WIDELY *********** The Ecology and Evolution Graduate Program at NJIT/Rutgers-Newark is currently recruiting graduate students for Fall 2010.
Our graduate program is offered jointly by the Federated Department of Biological Sciences at the New Jersey Institute of Technology and Rutgers University-Newark. The Federated Department of Biology has particular strengths in global change biology, spatial ecology, conservation biology, and invasion ecology. In addition to the Program in Ecology and Evolution, the Federated Department of Biology has programs in Cell and Molecular Biology and Computational Biology. Adding to the strength of the Federated Department are its collaborative interactions with the other academic units at Rutgers-Newark and NJIT, including the Departments of Chemistry, Physics, and Earth and Environmental Sciences; the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience at Rutgers; and the Departments of Mathematical Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, Chemistry and Environmental Sciences, and Computer Sciences at NJIT. We are also affiliated with the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Natural Resources at Rutgers-New Brunswick. Students in our graduate program can cross register for courses at all three campuses. Faculty that are actively seeking students include: Dr. Daniel Bunker http://newarkbioweb.rutgers.edu/department/FacultyProfiles/bunker.html http://web.njit.edu/~dbunker/ Dr. Claus Holzapfel http://newarkbioweb.rutgers.edu/department/FacultyProfiles/holzapfel.html Dr. Gareth Russell http://newarkbioweb.rutgers.edu/department/FacultyProfiles/russell.html http://web.njit.edu/~russell/index.html Dr. Karina Schäfer http://newarkbioweb.rutgers.edu/department/FacultyProfiles/schaefer.html Prospective students should contact directly the faculty members whose interests best match their own.
