Ready to Make a Difference?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are the only applied ecology department in the U.S. But that\u2019s only one of several qualities that makes us special. Our graduate and undergraduate programs encourage students to become disciplinary and interdisciplinary scientists, engage in research projects with faculty and pursue leadership roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will find a positive and supportive environment of committed faculty members who will guide you on your path. We offer prospective graduate students several degree options in biology<\/a>, environmental assessment<\/a> or fisheries, wildlife, and conservation biology<\/a>. Undergraduate students interested in ecological concepts and principles can minor in applied ecology<\/a> or enroll in our undergraduate courses<\/a>, regardless of major or department.<\/p>\n\n\n

Enacting Change on a Global Stage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our students become scientists, collaborators and leaders.<\/strong> As scientists, they develop research-based solutions to enact global change. As collaborators, they participate in a variety of interdisciplinary programs both within NC State and their community, including work with the USGS SE Climate Science Center. And whether they are leading citizen science projects, organizing the Ecology & Evolution series, representing labs at conferences or mentoring undergraduates, they are as serious about leadership as they are about science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
