Faculty & Research

The Environmental & Life Sciences Graduate Program faculty is drawn from the departments of Biology, Geography, Chemistry, and Environmental Sciences as well as other programs within the Trent School of the Environment. The program also draws on adjunct professors and research associates from other universities, non-government groups, and government organizations, such as the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.
