The Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior (EEB) Ph.D. program at Boise State University is now accepting applications for Fall 2017. The program was approved by the Idaho State Board of Education in February 2016.
The program uses a modern, evidence-based approach for training graduate students. The goal of the Ph.D. program is to provide students with an intellectual foundation in ecology, evolution and behavior; experience that transcends disciplinary boundaries; and the skills to work with collaborative partnerships that cut across disciplinary, organizational and geographical boundaries.
Students will receive training to become scientists who use theory from biological, physical and social sciences to solve basic and applied problems.
Unique opportunities are available to develop cross-discipline advisory committees with faculty in the departments of Biological Sciences, Anthropology, Geosciences and Human-Environment Systems, as well as with the Peregrine Fund and the U.S. Geological Survey’s Snake River Field Station.
Boise State’s proximity to important and unique natural areas, and its existing partnerships with state, federal and international agencies and organizations, fosters projects and collaborations that are relevant at the local, regional, national and international levels.
