Princeton University's Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology explores the fundamental principles governing life on Earth, investigating the intricate relationships between organisms and their environments alongside the evolutionary processes that shape biodiversity. A collaborative community of faculty, researchers, and students pushes the boundaries of knowledge in areas like climate change, biodiversity loss, infectious diseases, and animal behavior. The department emphasizes an integrated approach, spanning scales from molecules to ecosystems and incorporating diverse fields such as genomics, engineering, and public policy. Offering unique opportunities like international field programs in Kenya and Panama, the department prepares students to tackle complex challenges and contribute to understanding and managing the natural world.
