Current Opportunities for Graduate Students

UB has received a prestigious $3.1 million grant from the National Science Foundation to train a new generation of environmental experts using Western New York and the Great Lakes Basin as a "living laboratory." Twenty-five (25) doctoral students over the next five years will be selected for the Ecosystem Restoration through Interdisciplinary Exchange (ERIE) program, and they will be among the first in the nation to be trained with a strong foundation in the engineering, scientific, and policy-making considerations involved in restoring ecosystems, regardless of the discipline they are pursuing.

The Project Director for the grant is Dr. Alan J. Rabideau (Civil, Structural, and Environmental Engineering), and he is joined by Dr. Richelle M. Allen-King (Geology), Dr. Sean J. Bennett (Geography), Dr. Donald A. Grinde (American Studies), and Dr. Howard R. Lasker (Geology), all serving as Co-Principal Investigators.

Additional information about the program, including application details, can be found at www.erie.buffalo.edu.
