The Ecology and Evolutionary Biology major helps students explore and value the key connections between biological fields. This comprehensive program covers evolutionary biology, ecology, and physiology. Faculty expertise spans diverse areas, such as molecular evolution, population genetics, aging research, conservation, restoration ecology, biogeography, disease evolution, experimental evolution, microbial ecology, behavioral studies, ecophysiology, and more.
