Ringkasan program

The Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) Concentration in the undergraduate Biology major is appropriate for students pursuing careers or interests that require a better understanding of our natural world. Career opportunities exist in education at all levels; basic and applied research at colleges and universities, in governmental agencies, and in the private sector; ecological consulting; conservation and natural resource management; environmental planning; and the human health and veterinary sciences. Freshwater and marine resources are likely to become the most critical environmental issue facing humanity during this century. In addition to the ecosystem services provided by aquatic resources, these systems provide some of the best habitats for experimental and theoretical ecological research. Aquatic biologists study ecological organization ranging in scale from temporary ponds, which persist for a few weeks, to oceanic systems and global-scale relationships.
