quantitative expertise and interests in: ecology and biodiversity; global
change science; toxics and pollutants; the environment-­‐society interface;
or ecosystem services to society. The ideal candidate will have experience

techniques for analysis of large data sets, mathematical modeling, and
methods in complex systems theory. ERG especially encourages applicants
with a strong interest in multiple scales of analysis from local to global.
ERG is an interdisciplinary graduate program, so an ability to actively
engage with colleagues from other disciplines such as social science and
engineering is highly desirable, as is a compelling interest and engagement
in public policy.

interdisciplinary seminars with other faculty.
