This program explores how living beings interact with their surroundings and each other through an evolutionary lens. Ecology professionals engage in research and education focused on population genetics, evolutionary processes, survival adaptations, population dynamics, and community ecosystems. They also provide expertise for environmental impact assessments, regional development planning, and deliver environmental education as instructors, nature specialists, or science communicators. Typical career trajectories for graduates involve pursuing advanced degrees for academic roles (combining research and teaching at various institutions), technical positions in private sector environmental evaluation, or roles within government environmental organizations.
