The Earth harbors an incredible diversity of life, linked through webs of intricate ecological relationships and connected by deep evolutionary histories spanning millions of years. Human societies depend upon this biodiversity, yet much of it remains poorly understood by science and faces unprecedented threats from global change. The Bachelor of Science in Ecology, Evolution and Biodiversity (EEB), offered by the Department of Biology, trains the next generation of scientists to pioneer new insights into the natural world, clarify the processes that maintain and change it, and develop innovative approaches to its conservation. The EEB program prepares students to forge new understandings of the ecological interactions among species and their evolutionary adaptations to their environments. Graduating students can launch their career as a research scientist, a science policy advisor, an environmental analyst or a science communicator. In education, graduates can aim for university professor, K-12 science teacher or environmental program director. Out in the field, graduates can enter jobs as a restoration ecologist, park naturalist and conservation or natural resource manager.
