Graduate Program in Ecology and Evolution
Ecology and Evolution at Rutgers has a long and distinguished
history. The graduate program includes approximately 80 faculty and
75 graduate students. The program is interdisciplinary in nature and
offers graduate education and training in microbial, plant, animal,
and human ecology under the direction of outstanding faculty located
at three campuses (New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden); two marine
stations (in Tuckerton
and Bivalve); the
Pinelands Field
Station in New Lisbon; and the
Cary Institute for Ecosystem
Studies in Millbrook, New York.
Members of the faculty actively pursue research in conservation
biology, ecosystem ecology, evolutionary biology, marine biology,
microbial ecology, population and community ecology, population
genetics, and restoration ecology.
Students may study toward either M.S. or Ph.D. degrees. An M.S. is
not required to enter the Ph.D. program.
