MISSION
STATEMENT The mission of
the Graduate Program in Environmental Science (EVS)
is to bring a diverse research, teaching, and
out-reach capacity to bear on environmental problems
from local to global scales. The biological,
physical, and social scientists in the program
represent a broad range of disciplinary expertise,
while working within the unifying framework of the
analysis of environmental problems, and developing
management strategies to address them. The study of
the environment demands understanding of social,
physical, and biological systems, and the transfer
of basic research findings through implementation,
teaching, and out-reach. EVS facilitates the
cross-disciplinary collaboration necessary to
address vital, contemporary questions.
Faculty expertise includes
conservation biology, molecular biology, population
ecology, environmental chemistry, biogeochemistry,
ecotoxicology, soil science, GIS, hydrology,
environmental economics, and political science.
EVS provides students the
opportunity to build an individualized program
drawing on the breadth of associated faculty. Our
challenge is to provide a well-rounded graduate
education that creates scientists with the ability
to successfully address dynamic problems,
simultaneously allowing for in-depth, specialized
research at the forefront of a selected field of
endeavor.
