About the course

The PhD in environmental life sciences is a novel graduate degree program that provides doctorate-level training in several complementary fields focused on the interactions between organisms (e.g., plant, microbe, people and other animals) and the environment.

　　Graduate students are trained by means of a core class taught by environmental life science faculty members, through hands-on experiences in the lab and field, with guidance from committee members across multiple disciplines, and in research seminars.

　　The focus is on collaborative, interdisciplinary and integrative study of the causes and consequences of environmental variation across scales ranging from the organism to the globe. The overall goal is to provide a unique, interdisciplinary doctoral program that encourages students to explore and solve complex problems in the context of natural and anthropogenic environmental change.

　　Administered by ASU's School of Life Sciences, seven additional schools participate in this interdisciplinary program to promote broad, collaborative training. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
