Biology
Our students enjoy learning about, understanding and participating in the whole discovery process: how information in our textbooks and on the internet is generated. That process has to be holistic and we try to have students participate in the classroom, in discussion with peers and faculty, through research in the laboratory and out in the field, as well as learning what role in that process they will enjoy in their careers.

Assistant Professor
Environmental Science
My hope is to help equip our students to be transformative leaders in the global effort to create a more just and sustainable environmental future. My courses seek to elucidate both human impacts on environmental systems and the impacts of environmental change on society.

Chair of Earth and Environmental Science Department
Psychology
Being involved in my own research project over the summer was one of the most beneficial experiences of my undergraduate career. Working one-on-one with a professor who was so experienced in the research field gives me an edge for graduate school.
