About the course

We offer PhD degrees in ecology and evolutionary biology. Ecologists can research interactions between species and between species and their environments that influence abundance and distribution. Address climate change adaptation, design of habitat networks and agri-environment schemes.

　　Evolutionary biologists will use modern analytical tools to research the evolution of plants, animals and microbes. We’re developing new methods to incorporate fossils and geographic data into phylogenies, detect natural selection on phenotypes and probe gene network evolution and adaptive landscapes.
