Colloquium Speaker Series 

The Ecology and Evolution Colloquium Speaker Series 

The department of E&E brings together leading experts in their fields to share groundbreaking research and insights. Our series offers a dynamic platform for faculty, students, and the broader community to engage with cutting-edge ideas in ecology and evolution. Through these presentations, we aim to foster intellectual growth, inspire future research, and contribute to a deeper understanding of our natural world.

Dissertation Defenses

Our doctoral students culminate their academic journeys with a rigorous defense of their original research. This formal presentation offers an opportunity for students to showcase their expertise, engage in scholarly dialogue, and receive valuable feedback from faculty and peers. These events are open to the public and provide a glimpse into the cutting-edge research being conducted within our department.
