FELLOWSHIPS TO PURSUE GRADUATE STUDIES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT --
ECOLOGICAL AND EVOLUTIONARY PARASITOLOGY
The Evolutionary Ecology cluster in the Zoology Department has received a
major grant from the National Science Foundation to fund six (6) new
Ph.D. students in Ecology/Evolution/Animal Behavior. These students will
start the program in Fall, 1995 and be funded for five years. The
stipend is $14,000/year, with full tuition paid, plus a stipend for
travel and supplies. The Evolutionary Ecology cluster also has a $1.5
million grant to support research which can be used to assist graduate
students. Students who receive a GRT must be US citizens or residents.
Students who receive one of the Training Grants must conduct a research
project in either
ecological/evolutionary parasitology
or
use molecular techniques in some area of ecology-evolution-or animal
behavior.
The Graduate Program especially is interested in applications from women
or members of minority groups not well represented in science.
