We are recruiting 12 PhD students at the University of Alaska Fairbanks,
College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences through a new NSF program,
EMERGE Alaska. Several faculty in our departments of Fisheries, Marine
Biology and Oceanography conduct evolutionary biology research, including
phylogenomics, population genomics, environmental DNA, ichthyology,
transcriptomics and biogeography, on fishes, birds, invertebrates,
plankton and marine mammals.
This opportunity is only for US citizens, nationals or green card
holders who received an Honorable Mention from the National Science
Foundation’s Graduate Research Fellowship within the last 3 years
(since 2022). Fellowships provide 3 years of full support (salary,
stipend, health care, fees). Students should first identify and reach
out to a prospective faculty advisor before applying on NSF ETAP’s
website. Applications are due by 1/15/2026.
For a list of participating faculty and their research interests, as well
