Why Burlington, VT and UVM?<\/h3>\n

Burlington, Vermont consistently makes the national short lists for: “Best Place to Live<\/a>,” “Best College Town<\/a>,” “Best Place to Raise a Family<\/a>,” “Best City for Foodies<\/a>,” and even “Best Place to be a Hippy<\/a>” – while Vermont is recognized as one of the “greenest<\/a>,” “healthiest<\/a>,” and “most peaceful<\/a>” states in the nation.\u00a0 UVM is likewise a vibrant and stimulating community.\u00a0 One can find biology in all corners of the University, from the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources<\/a> and the Gund Institute<\/a> to the Medical School<\/a> and many places in between, like our excellent Department of Biology<\/a>.\u00a0 We also have a vibrant group, the Ecology, Evolution and Environmental Biology group, that meets to share ideas and build community among likeminded researchers across more than six departments.\u00a0 The Department of Biology has a cohesive, bright, and very social and supportive group of ~30 graduate students<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
