The department offers graduate research and teaching opportunities in biogeochemistry, forest and watershed ecology, and sustainable agriculture. Research problems may be developed in many subject areas, including nutrient cycling and soil chemistry, crop and weed ecology, plant pathology, and soil microbiology. Participation in multidisciplinary research projects is particularly encouraged. All 3 groups are housed together in Hutchison Hall on the University of Rochester's River Campus. Each program incorporates first-year laboratory rotations and teaching experience.
Students receive full and competitive support.
