Graduate positions, Nebraska, USA

Graduate positions in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
 
 University of Nebraska
 
 
 
 The Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior section of the School of Biological
 
 Sciences is seeking highly motivated students to join our graduate program.
 
 The EEB group is especially strong in the areas of plant-animal
 
 interactions, behavioral ecology, life-history evolution, evolutionary
 
 physiology, and evolutionary genetics.
 
 
 
 We offer generous graduate student support (among the best in the nation),
 
 an extremely collegial and interactive environment for doing science,
 
 excellent biotech and computational facilities, and access to the Cedar
 
 Point Biological Station. A recently funded ???Program of Excellence??? in
 
 Population Biology at the University of Nebraska will further strengthen
 
 the research program through new faculty hires and a permanent
 
 post-doctoral fellowship program (see http://popbio.unl.edu/). For more
 
 information about the department, see http://www.biosci.unl.edu/.
 
 
 
 Lincoln is a great capital city/college town surrounded by rolling prairie.
