The quest, the core, the passion: How do complex biological systems interact with and respond to environmental change?

Explore, study, and teach about biodiversity’s origins and maintenance that flow through all the tree of life’s branches -- mammals, reptiles, plants, fish, birds, insects. Tracking change from molecules to the biosphere, from over seconds and through millennia.

The way: A rigorous training environment prepares graduate students for multiple types of careers in the biological sciences.

EEB is an intellectual home. Activities, supportive programming and funding, and a vibrant meaningful social life bring new ideas, perceptions, and exciting challenges.
