how to apply
The Ecogeomorphology course is open to advanced undergraduates (preferably seniors) and beginning graduate students in the general fields of ecology, biology, physical sciences and engineering. The course is usually taught during the Spring Quarter, but occasionally is moved to Winter Quarter to accommodate special conditions of the rivers of interest. Students wishing to join the course or seeking more information should contact either Professor Mount or Professor Moyle. All student applicants will be required to provide:
- Name
- Major and expected graduation date
- Current GPA
- Specialized expertise (that is, what role might you play in our research teams?)
- Background coursework relevant to the class
- Experience in working in remote, rugged field conditions
- Long-range career or academic goals
Approximately 12 students will be selected to enroll in the course based on background, skills and academic performance. An additional selection factor will be the need to balance the distribution of different disciplines within the course.
