Our program provides doctoral studies in ecology and evolutionary biology. Ecology students investigate species interactions and their relationships with environments, examining factors affecting population dynamics and geographic ranges. Research focuses on climate resilience strategies, conservation corridor planning, and sustainable agricultural practices.

Evolutionary biology scholars employ cutting-edge analytical techniques to study the development of organisms across kingdoms. We're pioneering approaches to integrate paleontological evidence and biogeographic information into evolutionary trees, identify phenotypic selection pressures, and explore genetic regulatory networks and fitness landscapes.
