Who is the joint B.S./M.S. program in Biodiversity and Conservation Biology aimed at?
The EEB B.S./M.S. program is designed for people who want to get advanced (graduate level) training in biodiversity and conservation biology, but who do not necessarily need the extensive research training that would come with a thesis-based Master’s degree in order to advance their careers. Thus, the emphasis is on providing advanced training in a broad-base of topics relating to biodiversity and its protection, and on gaining workplace experience. We anticipate that the program will be best suited to students seeking vocational training for jobs with non-governmental organizations, state and federal agencies, museums, private consulting firms, etc.
