A world of possibilities EEB majors study processes at work in natural systems, and gain the skills to help improve the environment and human health.

Best of both worlds Ecology, Evolution and Behavior offers students the advantage of a large research university and access to world-class faculty along with a sense of community.

A fascination with investigation How do molecules evolve? What can we learn from animal behavior? How are species distributed across ecosystems? Find the answers at EEB.

Driven to discover EEB faculty and students make discoveries that reveal ecological, evolutionary and behavioral processes at work all around us.

In the field EEB faculty conduct long-term research at Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve, one of a number of research facilities available to students and faculty.

Just what the doctor ordered An in-depth understanding of evolution is playing an increasingly important role in medical research making EEB a good fit for students with an interest in the health sciences.
