MS/PhD Student Research Opportunity-January 2012

The Cardoza lab is looking for an outstanding, enthusiastic, self-motivated
graduate student with interest in the sustainable agriculture and soil
arthropod ecology. Research in my lab employs a multidisciplinary approach
to elucidating the mechanisms driving insect interactions with their
environment, particularly in agricultural systems.

The selected student will be part of a sustainable agriculture
multidisciplinary team evaluating cover crop decomposition and nutrient
cycling. The main focus will be on arthropod community composition and
their role in these processes. As such, candidates with demonstrated
enthusiasm for, and experience with, field research are highly encouraged to apply for this position. Experience with sustainable agriculture practices is a plus.

Our labs include a diverse group of researchers interested in ecological and organic agriculture production techniques and their effects on various aspects of soil quality and arthropod and microbial activity.

Requirements: We welcome inquiries from enthusiastic and dedicated
individuals with background in entomology, ecology, biology, agronomy, soil science or related discipline. Minimum GPA 3.0, GRE required. Degree in entomology or a related discipline for MS candidates (BS required), PhD candidates (MS required).

Candidates are required to formally apply to, and must meet the requirements to be accepted by, the North Carolina State University Graduate School (http://www2.acs.ncsu.edu/grad/prospect.htm) before consideration. Academic requirements are determined by the Department of Entomology (http://www.cals.ncsu.edu/entomology/).
