MS Ecology

Graduate studies at the Odum School of Ecology provide students with an interdisciplinary program that allow them to develop a broad background in ecology and related disciplines. Students work with faculty to become independent thinkers, researchers and decision-markers in ecology. Graduates from the M.S. Ecology program have gone on to high-level positions, both academic and non-academic, in the public and private sectors. In addition to professorships, alumni are employed in a variety of positions including policy analysts, conservation directors, executives in nonprofit organizations and officers in government agencies. The M.S. in Ecology is focused on training in the natural and human environment, as well as the integration of natural and socioeconomic systems.
