Dear Ecologgers, I would greatly appreciate you forwarding the following to any students you think might be interested:
I am seeking one to two Master's students to join my theoretical ecology lab at Kennesaw State University in Fall 2014. I have GRA support available for students interested in studying the structure of indirect effects in food webs (how patterns of indirect effects associated with different adaptive behaviors and mutualisms affect community stability). Students will have considerable freedom to develop their own questions of interest within this broader topic, and possibly unrelated topics as well. Strong interest in community ecology & species interactions, strong quantitative skills, and programming experience are all plusses. Interested students should provide me their cv, unofficial transcripts, GRE scores (also unofficial), a cover letter describing their relevant experience and interests, and contact information for 2-3 references. The deadline for applications to our Master's program is January 15th, but prospective applicants should contact me well in advance, ideally by early November. Please feel free to email me ([email protected]) with any questions. Kennesaw State University is located in the greater Atlanta metropolitan area, and is the third largest institution within the University System of Georgia. More information on me, Kennesaw State University, our Master of Science in Integrative Biology program, our Department of Biology & Physics, and our College of Science & Mathematics can be found at: http://science.kennesaw.edu/~agolubsk/ http://kennesaw.edu/ http://biology.kennesaw.edu/MSIB/index.html http://biology.kennesaw.edu/ http://science.kennesaw.edu/ Thanks! -- Antonio J.
