The Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation Biology (EEC) specialization provides comprehensive education in plant, animal, and microbial biology. Students in this program examine how these life forms interact within populations, ecological communities, and entire ecosystems. Tailored for those passionate about biodiversity, its evolutionary roots, environmental impacts on species survival, and preservation efforts, the EEC track emphasizes more fieldwork and natural environment studies than other biology specializations. Graduates pursue careers in environmental science, resource management, conservation, and education. EEC program alumni work across various sectors including government, nonprofits, academia, and private industry.
