Opportunities

If you are interested in joining the lab, please get in touch with Nicole Rafferty. The lab values diversity and welcomes enquiries from underrepresented groups.

The School of BioSciences offers a 2-year MS program that can be tailored to ecology, environmental science, or plant science (among other areas) and involves a major research project.

If interested, please reach out to Nicole and include your CV, unofficial transcript(s), and a short description of the general research topics you might like to pursue.

The PhD program in BioSciences provides Graduate Research Scholarships (which include tuition remission and a stipend) on a competitive basis for students who receive an offer. Additional scholarship options are available for both domestic and international applicants.

If you're interested in joining the lab as a PhD student, please contact Nicole and include your CV, unofficial transcript(s), and a short summary of the research topics you'd be keen to study.
