Graduate Fellowship Opportunities in Ecology Program in Ecology University of Wyoming
Graduate Fellowships are available for students entering the new doctoral Program in Ecology (PiE) at the University of Wyoming in Fall 2006. The PiE is an interdepartmental program involving 22 faculty members whose research interests range from behavioral and physiological ecology to ecosystem and global ecology. The ecological topology of biotic responses to global change provides an overarching scientific theme for the Program, integrating a broad range of spatial and temporal scales, multiple drivers of global change (climate change, land use, invasive species, biogeochemical alterations), and a diverse suite of analytical tools (stable isotopes, genetic markers, geographic information sciences, modeling, ecoinformatics). Additional information about PiE can be obtained at http://uwadmnweb.uwyo.edu/botany/Ecology/. We particularly seek students committed to integrating multiple analytical tools in their research, which will be facilitated by NSF-supported facilities at Wyoming that are linked to PiE (Stable Isotope Facility, Nucleic Acids Exploration Facility, Wyoming Geographic Information Sciences Center). Students interested in applying should contact individual PiE faculty members with whom they share research interests (see web page). They can also contact the PiE Director, Dr. Stephen T. Jackson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for additional information.
