Transcription

GRADUATE COUNCIL
REPORT TO THE RIVERSIDE DIVISION
ACADEMIC SENATE
MAY 20, 2008
TO BE ADOPTED:
The Riverside Division of the Academic Senate approves the proposal for a Proposal for
a Joint Doctoral Program in Evolutionary Biology Between the University of California,
Riverside and San Diego State University (revised April 2008).
JUSTIFICATION (adapted from program proposal)
At UCR, the Evolutionary, Ecology, and Organismal Biology (EEOB) Graduate Program
will administer the joint doctoral program. The detailed administration of the program
will be handled almost entirely at SDSU by a faculty member charged to be the SDSU
JDPEB Coordinator. Similarly, the joint doctoral faculty of the EEOB graduate program
at UCR will have a designated UCR JDPEB Coordinator (Graduate Advisor). The
faculty at both institutions, through their respective JDPEB Coordinators, shall confer on
matters regarding administration of the program and shall submit proposals for
modification of the program to the Graduate Councils at UCR and SDSU.
The principal purpose of this program is to allow talented students interested in
integrative evolutionary studies to pursue graduate work towards a doctoral degree
jointly at UCR and at SDSU. This experience will result in academic training and
research expertise not otherwise sustainable in the programs working in isolation.
Perhaps more importantly, the students themselves will form the nexus for novel
collaborations and synergism between faculty at both institutions. The students will be
directly involved in, and indeed be the reason, for innovative research directions in
evolutionary biology.
This JDPEB will provide multiple benefits to faculty and students at both SDSU and
UCR. The Department of Biology at SDSU has strength in systematics, paleontology
molecular population biology, and organismal/biodiversity biology. UCR is also
strong in these areas, enabling natural partnerships between the two faculties.
Equally important to the joint doctoral program are UCR's complementary research
areas that include experimental evolutionary biology, evolutionary ecology,
comparative physiology, and genome evolution. As a result, joint doctoral
students in this program will benefit from intellectual and research expertise in a
full range of sub-disciplines in evolutionary biology. The Interaction among
faculty that will be fostered by this program will increase collaborative studies
among laboratories, resulting in more innovative and cross-disciplinary research
programs. In short, both universities will be strengthened by having
complementary and overlapping fields represented in a single, integrative
program.

San Diego State University has a long and successful history with joint doctoral
programs. SDSU presently has 16 joint doctoral programs, three of which are among
the top five in the country in their respective fields (Chronicle of Higher Education,
January 2007). Currently, two joint doctoral programs are administered by the SDSU
Department of Biology in the areas of cell and molecular biology (with U.C. San Diego)
and ecology (with U.C. Davis). These two programs have been extremely successful
for several decades. The current proposal for a joint doctoral program in evolutionary
biology will allow all sub-disciplines in the SDSU Department of Biology to award PhD
degrees, via the establishment of a unique and integrative doctoral program between
SDSU and the EEOB Graduate Program at UCR. A direct benefit of the joint doctoral
program to UCR is the increase in the number of students trained by EEOB faculty.
Additionally, other benefits are expected to emerge from the increased interaction
between the two institutions. For example, strengthening the relationships between
SDSU and UCR faculty will facilitate the development of new, multi-campus research
collaborations and potentially increase the pool of talented students coming to UCR.
The proposal has been examined and unanimously approved by the following
committees of the Academic Senate: Graduate Council, Educational Policy, and
Library. The Planning and Budget Committee voted 3 in favor, 3 opposed, with 1
abstention. Planning & Budget views the proposal as a minimal cost proposal, but
equally considers the benefits as minimal. The proposal has the approval of the
Executive Committee and the Dean of the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences.

A PROPOSAL FOR A JOINT DOCTORAL PROGRAM IN EVOLUTIONARY
BIOLOGY BETWEEN THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, RIVERSIDE AND
SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY
SECTION 1. INTRODUCTION
1. Aims and objectives of the Joint Doctoral Program
This is a proposal to establish a joint doctoral program in Evolutionary Biology (JDPEB)
between the Graduate Program in Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology (EEOB) at the
University of California Riverside and the Department of Biology at San Diego State University.
Faculty at both campuses are highly engaged in research which provides a strong base for a JD in
Evolutionary Biology. SDSU has traditionally graduated many highly qualified M.S. students in
evolutionary biology, reflecting the long-standing strength of SDSU faculty in this field. The
principal purpose of this program is to allow talented students interested in integrative
evolutionary studies to pursue graduate work towards a doctoral degree jointly at UCR and at
SDSU.
This program will be unique for everyone involved. Doctoral students will be immersed in a
deep and rich intellectual environment and exposed to diverse ideas and cutting edge research
methodologies. This experience will result in academic training and research expertise not
otherwise attainable in the programs working in isolation. Perhaps more importantly, the
students themselves will form the nexus for novel collaborations and synergism between faculty
at both institutions. The students will be directly involved in, and indeed be the reason for,
innovative research directions in evolutionary biology.
San Diego State University has a long and successful history with joint doctoral programs.
SDSU presently has 16 joint doctoral programs, three of which are among the top five in the
country in their respective fields (Chronicle of Higher Education, January 2007). Currently, two
joint doctoral programs are administered by the SDSU Department of Biology in the areas of cell
and molecular biology (with U.C. San Diego) and ecology (with U.C. Davis). These two
programs have been extremely successful for several decades. The current proposal for a joint
doctoral program in evolutionary biology will allow all sub-disciplines in the SDSU Department
of Biology to award PhD degrees, via the establishment of a unique and integrative doctoral
program between SDSU and the EEOB Graduate Program at UCR. A direct benefit of the joint
doctoral program to UCR is the increase in the number of students trained by EEOB faculty.
Additionally, other benefits are expected to emerge from the increased interaction between the
two institutions. For example, strengthening the relationships between SDSU and UCR faculty
will facilitate the development of new, multi-campus research collaborations. The benefits to
both campuses are further detailed in Section 1.3.
As described below, the methods and perspectives of evolutionary biology pervade fields as
disparate as psychology, medicine, behavior, genetics and ecology. The field has made
innumerable contributions to societal needs that include human health, agriculture and renewable
resources, and environmental management and conservation. Students with doctoral training in
Evolutionary Biology are in great need at universities and colleges, museums, biotechnology
companies, environmental consulting firms, and local, state and federal agencies.
378
2. The Importance of Evolutionary Biology
The famous evolutionary biologist Theodosius Dobzhansky once wrote, "Nothing in biology
makes sense except in the light of evolution.” Because all living organisms have descended with
modification from common ancestors, a complete understanding of any biological process or
characteristic can only be obtained through an evolutionary perspective. Consequently, a recent
report from the U.S. National Academy of Sciences emphasized that evolution is “the most
important concept in modern biology- a concept central to understanding key aspects of living
things.” The evolutionary thread that accounts both for the unity and diversity of life extends
across levels of biological organization that range from the DNA molecule to entire species,
from individual organisms to ecological communities. Working under a complex and continually
advancing body of theory, evolutionary biologists unravel the complexities of this thread using
an integrative diversity of approaches. The implications of this research have profound and farreaching importance. As highlighted below, novel insight in traditional areas of study and newly
developing connections across previously isolated disciplines ensure that the importance of
evolutionary biology will continue to increase in the future (also see Appendices A and B).
Evolutionary biology has been traditionally defined to encompass broadly studies of both
historical patterns (including discovering, describing, and classifying the diversity of past and
present life) and evolutionary processes (including population genetics, reproductive
mechanisms, and speciation). The interface of these two focal areas has blurred recently, and for
any given feature (e.g., the vertebrate limb), it is now possible to analyze structure and function,
study ontogeny or developmental history, and reconstruct phylogeny and evolutionary
transitions. This combination of complementary pattern- and process-based research
characterizes the best of modern-day evolutionary biology. The integration of broad biological
disciplines such as comparative physiology, functional morphology, evolutionary ecology,
genome evolution and conservation biology – further enriches the core of the field (Figure 1).
Modern evolutionary biology is a synthesis of diverse scientific approaches conducted using
field, laboratory, and computational methods. No issue in public education holds greater urgency
or importance than communicating the nature, implications and application of evolutionary
biology.
Figure 1. Diagram illustrating the disciplines of biology that are integrated in evolutionary biological studies.
379
Two examples illustrate the relevance of evolutionary biology in society today. First, the
myriad benefits of life's richness are eroding due to human-related activities. Because of habitat
destruction, pollution, invasive species, and long-term climatic change, species are going extinct
at a rate unprecedented in the earth's history. The loss of this biodiversity has profound impacts
on human welfare, as we depend on the diversity of life for food, clothing, shelter, medicine, and
recreation. Evolutionary biologists play many key roles in the study of biodiversity, serving as
caretakers of the knowledge and resources (e.g., museum collections) required to answer the
most basic of questions, “What is the diversity of life in a region?” Evolutionary biologists also
seek to elucidate the processes of diversification and extinction that underlie this biodiversity, the
distribution of biodiversity across phylogenetic groups, and the assemblage of ecological
communities through time. The ability of biologists to predict and mitigate the future effects of
global change is predicated on a full understanding of these patterns and processes in space and
time.
As with other life sciences, the technological advances of molecular biology have
revolutionized evolutionary biology over the past two decades. Our understanding of the
evolutionary relationships among the major groups of life on Earth (and the origin of life itself)
has been completely restructured based on molecular evidence. Molecular genetics is providing
astounding and unforeseen insight into the development and evolution of life. Conversely, the
theoretical and research framework provided by evolutionary biology has also impacted the
sciences of molecular biology, biotechnology, and biomedicine. The structure and function of all
molecules become modified in evolving lineages. This includes all medically important viruses
(e.g., HIV), such that evolutionary epidemiology is emerging as an exceedingly important
medicinal discipline. Tremendous resources have been directed at the sequencing of numerous
genomes (including the human genome), and the ultimate value of these data is contingent upon
a comparative evolutionary framework. Throughout many other applications of evolutionary
biology, the basic principle of descent with modification provides a powerful conceptual
framework for advancing research.
3. The Benefits of a Joint Doctoral Program in Evolutionary Biology
This JDPEB will provide multiple benefits to faculty and students at both SDSU and UCR.
The Department of Biology at SDSU has strength in systematics, paleontology, molecular
population biology, and organismal/biodiversity biology. UCR is also strong in these areas,
enabling natural partnerships between the two faculties. Equally important to the joint doctoral
program are UCR's complementary research areas that include experimental evolutionary
biology, evolutionary ecology, comparative physiology, and genome evolution. As a result, joint
doctoral students in this program will benefit from intellectual and research expertise in a full
range of sub-disciplines in evolutionary biology. The interaction among faculty that will be
fostered by this program will increase collaborative studies among laboratories, resulting in more
innovative and cross-disciplinary research programs. In short, both universities will be
strengthened by having complementary and overlapping fields represented in a single, integrative
program.
The establishment of a joint doctoral program in evolutionary biology will benefit SDSU
faculty within and outside of the Biology Department’s Evolutionary Biology (EB) Program
Area. Already, four EB faculty are adjunct members of the department’s other joint doctoral
programs. With full access to a dedicated program, all faculty in the program area will be able to
pursue research projects that require students that are more advanced, and student-led projects
380
that require longer periods of time. The joint doctoral students will benefit from world-class
mentoring and training, through access to an unusually large, diverse and research-active
complement of faculty. Finally, larger societal needs in the twenty-first century will be met with
an investment in evolutionary biology while there is still time to change current environmental
and educational trends. (For example, a substantial portion of the public is skeptical about, or
even hostile to, the very concept of evolution).
Specific benefits of the joint doctoral program in Evolutionary Biology include the
following:
• As outlined below under Projected Needs, there are great employment needs for students
with training in evolutionary biology.
• A major benefit to UCR is the influx of additional highly talented students from the joint
program. These students will not only participate in collaborative research at UCR, but will
also serve to further increase the intellectual depth and breadth of the graduate student body
at UCR. As described below, SDSU's program in evolutionary biology has historically
graduated many excellent students who have gone on to lead the field. These leaders include
faculty at major research universities and curators at the most prominent national museums.
• The joint doctoral program would greatly facilitate collaborative research between UCR and
SDSU faculty and students, and would increase the visibility of each independent faculty
group.
• The close geographic locations of SDSU and UCR provide a logical basis for conducting
collaborative field research in southern California. SDSU currently operates field stations in
southern California that would be accessible to faculty and students of UCR. These stations
span a variety of ecosystem types, including some habitat types not represented in the UC
Reserve System. In addition, because SDSU maintains close collaborations with researchers
at the San Diego Natural History Museum, the joint program can serve as a gateway to
research in the chaparral, deserts, and mountains of Baja California. These resources will be
more easily available to UCR researchers through this joint program.
• UCR EEOB students can potentially access SDSU lab facilities, field stations and other
logistical resources.
• SDSU will fund a joint seminar series for talks given alternately at UCR and at SDSU by
faculty members or advanced Ph.D. candidates. The close geographic proximity of the
campuses makes this arrangement highly feasible.
• Finally, there will be an increased potential to track some of the best-qualified undergraduate
and M.S. biology students at SDSU into UCR’s EEOB doctoral program.
The obvious major benefit to SDSU is the development of a doctoral program for an area in
which faculty and M.S. student research is already strong. With 12 faculty pursuing research in
evolutionary biology, the Department of Biology at SDSU already contains one of the largest
evolutionary biology programs in southern California. Development of a Ph.D. program would
further enhance SDSU’s success in research, education, and student mentoring and training in
evolutionary biology. Of the potential collaborating institutions in southern California (e.g., UC
San Diego, UC Irvine, UCLA), the evolutionary biologists at SDSU believe UC Riverside to be
the strongest and most obvious candidate, for several reasons, including:
• The Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology graduate program at UCR (EEOB)
emphasizes vertical integration of the life sciences. The faculty of the EEOB program strive
to make fundamental and unifying discoveries at all levels of the biological hierarchy ranging
381
•
•
•
from cellular and molecular mechanisms to evolutionary mechanisms to ecology and
conservation biology. There is a strong group of faculty (30 out of 38, including Cooperating
Faculty from outside the Biology department that participate in the EEOB graduate program)
that shares a common interest in evolutionary mechanisms (including systematic biology,
development, molecular evolution, evolutionary physiology, and evolutionary ecology).
The graduate program in UCR’s Department of Biology has been nationally ranked by the
National Research Council as being in the top 20% of Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior
programs in the nation (1995 NRC ranking). While the UCR EEOB graduate program is
administered primarily by the Department of Biology, the program also includes 13
Cooperating Faculty Members from three of UCR’s extensive life sciences departments
(Entomology, Botany and Plant Sciences, and Earth Sciences), with the potential for
additional membership in the future.
Because they share many of the same general programmatic interests, the Department of
Biology at SDSU and the EEOB program at UCR are complementary, not competitive,
promising much very fruitful collaboration. For instance: expertise in plant molecular
evolution and morphological systematics at SDSU can be paired with plant molecular
systematics at UCR. Spider phylogeography and phylogenetics at SDSU can be interfaced
with spider molecular evolution at UCR. Similarly, mammalian morphological systematics
at SDSU can intersect with mammalian molecular systematics at UCR. Finally
herpetological molecular systematics at SDSU can be combined with vertebrate comparative
biology at UCR. This list highlights only some of the possibilities for integrative research
between the institutions.
The geographic proximity between the two universities is an important practical
consideration for this collaboration. Local field research areas are near both institutions, and
faculty and students participating in the joint doctoral program will be able to meet regularly
without the loss of a great deal of time and money spent in traveling.
The strength in evolutionary biology at SDSU is one of the key ways in which the proposed
program meets the criteria for approval. SDSU is currently classified as a University-High
research activity in Carnegie rankings. In particular, SDSU’s Department of Biology is
exceptionally strong in research activity and committed to graduate training. Much of that
strength is in the area of evolutionary biology (12 of 41 faculty), and graduate research in the
Department has been nationally regarded for decades. The establishment of a joint doctoral
program in evolutionary biology will not only enhance the academic environment at SDSU
(complementing the existing joint doctoral programs in Cellular/Molecular Biology with UC San
Diego and Ecology with UC Davis), but will also provide a new and distinctive doctoral program
in southern California.
4. Timetable for development of the program and enrollment projection
Because the faculties at both institutions are already in place, only administrative details need
to be worked out. As detailed below, this only requires a part-time staff person at and funded by
SDSU for administrative support. As soon as the administrations on both campuses agree and
the state board grants approval, the program may begin to accept applications, with a strong goal
of beginning the program in Fall 2009. The JDPEB is anticipated to be a six -year program, with
a steady state enrollment of up to 20 students.
382
5. Department or group that will administer the program
At UCR, the EEOB Graduate Program will administer the joint doctoral program. The
detailed administration of the program will be handled almost entirely at SDSU by a faculty
member charged to be the SDSU JDPEB Coordinator. Similarly, the joint doctoral faculty of the
EEOB graduate program at UCR will have a designated UCR JDPEB Coordinator (Graduate
Advisor). The faculty at both institutions, through their respective JDPEB Coordinators, shall
confer on matters regarding administration of the program and shall submit proposals for
modification of the program to the Graduate Councils at UCR and SDSU. Changes in the JDPEB
program and its bylaws must be approved by both Graduate Councils.
6. Plan for evaluation of the program
As with other academic programs, an external committee will review the program, submit a
proposal concerning the program’s future operation to the two Graduate Councils for approval,
and report to the Joint Doctoral Board at appropriate intervals (e.g., five years). Established
review procedures at each institution will be followed.
SECTION 2. THE PROGRAM
1. Admission and Residency Requirements
Applicants for admission to the JDPEB will apply to the SDSU-UCR Evolutionary Biology
JDP. The application process will be coordinated by SDSU. Potential applicants should have a
bachelor's degree in one of the life sciences or physical sciences. Promising students with other
academic backgrounds are also encouraged to apply if they have strong undergraduate
coursework in biology. The applicant must have a bachelor's and/or master's degree or the
equivalent from an accredited institution, with training comparable to that provided by the SDSU
and UCR programs. The applications to the JDPEB will be evaluated by the Joint Admissions
Committee, a four member committee consisting of two SDSU Evolutionary Biology faculty and
two UCR EEOB faculty. Successful applicants must meet the general requirements for
admission of both institutions with graduate standing, as outlined in the respective graduate
catalogs, and must also receive approval from the UCR EEOB Graduate Advisory Committee to
ensure that the JDPEB and EEOB graduate programs have comparable admissions standards. To
facilitate communication between the Joint Admissions Committee and EEOB Graduate
Advisory Committee, at least one UCR faculty member will serve on both committees.
Admission recommendations by the Joint Admissions Committee and supported by the EEOB
Graduate Advisory Committee will require acceptance by the Graduate Divisions of both SDSU
and UCR.
After formal admission to the joint doctoral program, the student must satisfy the minimum
academic residency requirements for both institutions. For UCR this would normally be three
quarters and for SDSU, two semesters. By completing one year of graduate studies at SDSU
before attending UCR, the students will be more academically prepared and in a better position
to maximize their research experience at UCR. Also, some students may have coursework
deficiencies, which are typically prerequisites that they have yet to take before enrolling in
particular graduate classes. If these deficiencies are fulfilled in the first year at SDSU, the
students can focus on graduate-level courses and research while at UCR. Normally, the one-year
residency at UCR would encompass consecutive Fall, Winter, and Spring terms during the
383
student’s second year in the program. In some cases, with approval by the UCR and SDSU joint
graduate advisors, the student may satisfy the UCR three quarter residency requirement by taking
terms in more than one academic year. This is in accordance with other joint programs between
SDSU and UC campuses in which no program requires more than one year of residence at the
UC institution. Permission to stay longer than one year at UCR may be granted by the student’s
joint guidance committee.
At the start of the student’s first year in the program, the student will form a Guidance
Committee. This committee will consist of four faculty members, two chosen from each
institution. From SDSU, the committee must include the student's prospective dissertation
advisor and an additional, programmatically appropriate, member. From UCR, the committee
members will be drawn from faculty within the EEOB graduate program. In consultation with
the student, the Guidance Committee plans the student's program through Advancement to
Candidacy.
2. Program of Study
A. Master’s Degree
Because this is a joint doctoral program, and because San Diego State University already
offers a Master’s degree, this aspect does not apply to the program. Students who leave the joint
doctoral program may be eligible to obtain an M.S. degree from SDSU (but not UCR) upon
completion of the Master’s program requirements.
B. Ph.D. Degree
1. Foreign Language Requirement
Students are expected to understand the relevant literature in their field in whatever foreign
languages are appropriate. There is no language exam administered by the program.
2. Specific fields of emphasis
This program emphasizes evolutionary biology; there are no specific emphases within the
program, although research specialties may be quite diverse.
3. Course Requirements
The Guidance Committee works with the student to develop an individualized course of
study and identify potential deficiencies. Students in the joint doctoral program will have similar
requirements as students in UCR’s EEOB graduate program. Specifically, the joint doctoral
students will take the Theory of Evolution (UCR Biol 216) and at least two disciplinary courses
(see below; the two required disciplinary courses must cover different disciplines; at least one
disciplinary course must be taken at UCR). In addition, the students will enroll in a current
research topics seminar course during each UCR quarter or SDSU semester of residence. UCR
course descriptions are in Appendix C and SDSU course descriptions are in Appendix D. The
majority of required course work should be completed prior to the Written Qualifying Exam,
which is taken at the end of the second year. All required disciplinary courses (see below) must
be completed before taking the Oral Qualifying Exam. Students in good standing must maintain
a minimum GPA of 3.0 overall in upper division and graduate level course work related to the
degree. An example of the required coursework and anticipated schedule for completion is
presented below:
384
Year 1 at SDSU
• Seminar in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (each semester) (SDSU Biol 796A)
• At least one of the following courses:
− Phylogenetic Systematics (SDSU Biol 740)
− Population Genetics (SDSU Biol 624)
Year 2 at UCR
• The Theory of Evolution (UCR Biol 216)
• At least one of the following courses:
− Ecology: Genes to Ecosystems (UCR Biol 211)
− Ecological Systems in Space and Time (UCR Biol 212)
− Behavioral Ecology (UCR Biol 213)
− Evolutionary Genetics (UCR Biol 214)
− Population and Community Ecology (UCR Biol 217)
− Theory of Systematics (UCR Biol 219)
− Evolutionary Physiology (UCR Biol 220)
• During each quarter of residence:
− General Colloquium in Biology (UCR Biol 252 or another disciplinary colloquium)
− Advances in Population and Evolutionary Biology (UCR Biol 265)
4. Teaching Requirement
All joint doctoral students are required to be a Graduate Teaching Assistant for at least two
semesters at SDSU.
5. Qualifying Examination and Committee
By the end of the second year, students are expected to have taken a written qualifying
examination, according to similar requirements of the EEOB Evolutionary Biology PhD Track at
UCR. The Written Exam consists of a review paper in the intended topic of the dissertation;
details of the structure of the exam are provided during the Fall quarter of the year in which the
exam is to be taken. The written exam is evaluated by an ad hoc committee of faculty
participating in the JDPEB program. The committee will have a minimum of 4 faculty, at least 2
from UCR EEOB and 2 from SDSU EB.
Upon passing the written examination, the student (in consultation with their SDSU and UCR
co-advisors) selects an Oral Examination Committee. This committee normally consists of five
faculty members: a minimum of 2 UCR EEOB faculty, a UCR outside committee member, and
a minimum of 2 SDSU EB faculty. The SDSU major advisor cannot be a member of the Oral
Exam Committee. The student then writes a detailed research proposal, which is a different
document from the review paper described above, and schedules an oral examination. During
the exam, the candidate must defend the research proposal and may be questioned on other topics
by the Oral Examination Committee. Assuming normative progress, the Oral Exam occurs in the
Fall term of the student’s third year.
6. Dissertation Committee
After passing the Written and Oral Exams, students file for Advancement to Candidacy with
the Graduate Divisions at UCR and SDSU. On the petitions, the student states the topic of their
dissertation and names the members of the Dissertation Committee, which is approved by the
385
Graduate Divisions. This committee consists of at least four faculty members, including the
major advisor. In all, at least two members must be from the EEOB faculty of UCR and at least
two members must be from the EB faculty of SDSU (with approval from the Graduate Division
at UCR). Any changes to the composition of the Dissertation Committee must adhere to the
above requirement. The Dissertation Committee is responsible for advising the student on the
research and provides final approval of the dissertation.
7. Completion of the Dissertation
Upon completion of the dissertation, the student will present research seminars at both UCR
and SDSU. At one institution, which will be determined by the student’s Dissertation
Committee, the research seminar may be followed by a final oral dissertation defense to be
administered by the Dissertation Committee. Preferably, the seminars will be given during the
academic year of each institution. Completion of the oral dissertation defense requires either
unanimous positive votes or no more than one negative vote from the Dissertation Committee.
While it is strongly encouraged that the students prepare the dissertation in the form of a
manuscript (or series of manuscripts) to be submitted to peer-reviewed journals to expedite the
publication of their research, the completed dissertation must be formatted and filed in
accordance with the requirements currently in force at UCR.
8. Certification (Award of the Degree)
The Doctor of Philosophy degree in EEOB will be awarded jointly by the Regents of the
University of California and the Trustees of the California State University in the names of both
institutions.
9. Normative time from matriculation to degree
The normative time for completion of the doctoral program will be six years from admission,
but students should be able to finish in five years. Advancement to candidacy will normally be
completed early in their third year; students not advancing by the end of their third year must
petition to avoid being subject to probation and dismissal from the program. Total registered
time in the program cannot exceed four years following advancement to candidacy.
SECTION 3. PROJECTED NEEDS
1. Student Demand for the Program
The number of applications to evolutionary biology-oriented Ph.D. programs in California
and across the nation far exceeds the ability of the various programs and departments to
accommodate the highly qualified students who apply. The UCR EEOB graduate program
attracts some of the best applicants to UCR. By adding the strengths of the SDSU EB faculty to
the UCR EEOB faculty, the joint doctoral program will draw even more high-caliber students to
UCR. Further, it is anticipated that the number of applicants will increase to parallel the rising
number of jobs in academia, government, and industry that are related to evolutionary biology.
This rise in interest is largely the result of the increasingly central role of evolution in all fields of
biology. As a result of both the rapid growth of the evolutionary biology workforce and
technological advances in areas such as molecular methodology, computing and information
processing (i.e. bioinformatics), progress in evolutionary biology is more rapid now than ever
before. With the appropriate and necessary support in education and research, evolutionary
386
biology will make even greater contributions to knowledge of the history of life and the
processes that account for this history. Understanding the history of life and processes of
evolution informs every area of biology. Given this, there is a need for a new, focused,
intellectually sound, and technologically advanced doctoral program in evolutionary biology.
2. Opportunities for Placement of Graduates
The JDPEB will emphasize the intellectual content of evolutionary biology through its
commitment to research. Graduates of this program will be fully prepared to enter traditional
academic pursuits in evolutionary biology and related sub-disciplines (e.g., systematics,
population genetics, comparative physiology, evolutionary ecology, molecular evolution).
Employment in these fields can be found in colleges, universities and museums, where
evolutionary biologists typically constitute 15-50% of a department’s faculty (up to 100% in
research intensive natural history museums). In recent years, ~20-25% of the biology faculty
positions advertised in Science required expertise in one or more sub-disciplines of evolutionary
biology. Based on analyses of positions posted/advertised on the Evolution Directory
(http://evol.mcmaster.ca/brian/evoldir.html) and in Science over the past few years, at least 125250 jobs are widely and internationally advertised each year for individuals with PhDs in
Evolutionary Biology. Of these jobs, approx. 30% are tenure-track faculty positions, and 55%
are postdoctoral research positions. An additional unknown number of jobs in evolutionary
biology may be advertised locally, and undoubtedly, many more tenure-track positions in a
“general” field (e.g., biology, physiology, zoology, genetics) are also available. The most recent
job search for an evolutionary biologist in the UCR Department of Biology attracted over 55
applicants. In the SDSU Biology department, the past four job searches for faculty in
Evolutionary Biology have received an average of 55 applicants, compared to 45-47 for Cell and
Molecular Biology or Ecology.
Increasingly, individuals with evolutionary biology training are also sought by private
companies, and government agencies such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S.
Geological Survey, and state fish and game departments. Based on (1) the breadth and quality of
the faculty participating in the program, (2) the experiences of recent graduates from comparable
programs elsewhere, and (3) anticipated increases in the need for biologists with evolutionary
biology training, the joint doctoral program graduates should have few problems obtaining
placement in an academic and non-academic setting (typically following 1-3 years of
postdoctoral research experience).
3. Importance to the Discipline
This aspect is addressed in detail in Sections 1.1 and 1.2.
4. Ways in which the program will meet the needs of society
Some students in this program will choose to pursue careers outside of academia. For
example, training in comparative physiology may lead to a career in environmental toxicology
(private, municipal, state and federal jobs). Expertise in avian or marine mammal biology and
evolution is required for employment in zoos, wildlife rehabilitation organizations and private
conservation groups. These organizations, as well as museums and an increasing number of
pharmaceutical companies that “bioprospect” for new drugs, also seek systematists with doctoral
degrees. Training in conservation genetics can lead to employment by federal agencies such as
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Biological Resources Division of the USGS. Also,
387
individuals trained in biodiversity assessment are increasingly being sought by state, federal and
international agencies dealing with biotic management, conservation, and environmental issues.
Evolutionary perspectives on pest and invasive species may lead to employment in the U.S.
Department of Agriculture or the California Department of Food and Agriculture (or similar
agencies in other states). Physiologists, molecular geneticists and population geneticists are
employed by the National Institutes of Health. Finally, we anticipate that many of our joint
doctoral students will be needed to analyze and interpret the enormous amounts of comparative
genomics information currently being generated by the many on-going genome projects in the
growing field of bioinformatics.
To meet these goals, the doctoral students will receive training in field techniques (collection
of specimens) for extant and extinct vertebrates, invertebrates, plants, or microorganisms.
Laboratory skills will include specimen preparation, curation, identification using morphological
and genetic data, physiological analysis, and molecular analysis (e.g., PCR, sequencing,
cloning). Quantitative analytic skills will include statistics, modeling, data mining,
bioinformatics, and the use and design of genetic analysis software. Most importantly, students
will receive the training in the principles and concepts necessary to interpret evolutionary
patterns of biodiversity at the level of the gene, individual, species and higher taxon.
5. Relationship of the Program to the Research and Professional Interests of the Faculty
As can be seen from the attached vitae, SDSU’s faculty research is well established in the
field of evolutionary biology. Furthermore, there are strong complementary research programs
between the evolutionary biology faculties at UCR and SDSU. This will allow the sharing of
research ideas and the creation of new synergistic opportunities for students and faculty.
6. Benefits of the program to UC Riverside
The students and faculty at SDSU involved in this program will benefit from the interactive
collaboration with UCR students and faculty, as well as the opportunity for students to use the
collections and facilities at UCR. However, there are clear benefits to UCR as well. Six
principal benefits were listed and explained in Section 1.1, above. UCR faculty will be able to
expand their interactions with talented graduate students, and the program will benefit from these
students who perform research in UCR laboratories and/or UC field sites. The UCR EEOB
program has been highly selective about the number of students admitted for graduate work. In
part this is because the EEOB faculty must have adequate space for these students and be able to
provide financial support for at least five years. The joint Ph.D. program offers an expanded
opportunity for graduate student mentoring and collaboration in research. The faculty will also
be able to contribute to the education of a greater number of Ph.D. students who will embody the
integrative approach to evolutionary biology that is the hallmark of the UCR program. The
faculty of the two institutions will also have a much greater opportunity for sharing of ideas and
expanded research collaboration. This offers the possibility of a larger “virtual” faculty and a
much deeper talent pool available to both the SDSU and UCR biology programs. Finally,
because most SDSU students tend to do their fieldwork in southern California and adjacent
areas, this brings enhanced research opportunities to UCR faculty and students.
It should be emphasized that this program does not simply entail a year of coursework at
Riverside, taught by UCR professors. The students generally admitted to this program will be
selected because their research interests potentially overlap with those of specific UCR
professors. Perhaps just as importantly, the SDSU students will be able to interact with the UCR
388
students. These contacts will not only take place in the specific laboratories the SDSU students
join, but throughout the whole EEOB program at UCR. It is expected that students will enter
this program because there are collections, facilities, expertise, and research projects at UCR
from which mutual benefit can be derived. We anticipate, because research materials and
methods will be closely shared, that students enrolled in the joint program will typically spend
more time with their UCR professors than the one year mandated by the program.
7. Program Differentiation
These aspects were detailed in Sections 1.1 and 1.3. This proposed doctoral program is
differentiated from all others at California campuses by being the only Joint Doctoral Program in
Evolutionary Biology between a U.C. and C.S.U. Also, the specific and complementary research
interests of the UCR EEOB and SDSU Evolutionary Biology faculties create unique
opportunities for graduate training.
SECTION 4. STAFF
1. Participating Faculty
The faculty for the JDPEB will incorporate all members of the UCR EEOB graduate program
who wish to participate in the joint doctoral program. Also, evolutionary biologists in other
UCR departments who wish to participate may be listed as participating members. Participating
faculty may be involved in the JDPEB through a variety of activities, including hosting lab
rotations, membership on JDPEB committees (Joint Admissions Committee, Guidance
Committees, Qualifying Examination Committees, Dissertation Committtees), teaching in
relevant graduate courses, and serving as the UCR JDPEB Coordinator (Graduate Advisor).
From SDSU, those members of the faculty who are qualified on the basis of their research
interest and professional growth records may participate in joint doctoral training in Evolutionary
Biology. All individuals listed as faculty for the program have Ph.D.s. The list of doctoral
faculty submitted for SDSU represents the combined judgment of the faculties of the two
programs and will be approved following established procedures of the Office of Graduate and
Research Affairs.. New faculty hires at SDSU will be selected, in part, on their preparation and
qualifications to participate in the joint Ph.D. program and will be incorporated into the doctoral
faculty. This selection process can be initiated either by new faculty or by the coordinators of
the program at UCR and SDSU. It is expected that participation in the program will be both selfselective and logically appropriate; however, approval for new faculty to be involved rests with
the existing faculty, by consent of the coordinators of the program.

SECTION 6. RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS
1. Resources at UCR
Few additional resources will be required for UCR. The resources described below are not
requested of the joint doctoral program nor of SDSU. These requests will be made by EEOB
faculty to the UCR administration. Existing administrative staff will handle applications,
admission, and student advising. Also, a diverse course curriculum already exists. The program
costs (i.e., joint doctoral student stipends, tuition, some research funds) for the required one-year
residence at UCR will be covered by SDSU. SDSU will handle the administrative expenses and
workload related to joint admission, coordination, and transfers of necessary records. Note that
in some cases, collaborations may grow such that it would be fruitful to all involved for students
to extend their stay at UCR. If any joint doctoral students stay any additional terms at UCR (up
to one additional year) the funding for their stay will come from individual PI funds at UCR.
The financial details will have to be worked out on a student-by-student basis, but there is no
explicit requirement that the funds will be provided by UCR standing programs or the EEOB
administrative budget.
A. FTE Faculty
No additional FTE faculty are requested.
None.
C. Computing costs
None.
D. Equipment
Given the existing research equipment base in the laboratories of the UCR JDPEB
participating faculty, the joint doctoral program can be initiated without additional equipment
acquisitions.
While in residence at UCR, the joint doctoral students will require office space. Office space
for graduate students will be assigned by the department chairs of the hosting PIs.
392
Support is needed for travel between UCR and SDSU and telecommuting expenses. Some
Joint Admission, Guidance, and Dissertation Committee meetings will take place using existing
teleconferencing and videoconferencing equipment. However, it will be necessary for certain
JDPEB Committees to meet in person, such as for Qualifying Examinations and Dissertation
Defenses. Furthermore, there will be a JDPEB-sponsored seminar series to bring SDSU EB
researchers to UCR. Funds are needed for mileage reimbursement and lunch meetings between
UCR graduate students and the visiting SDSU seminar speaker.
2. Resources at SDSU
Note that the resources described below are not requested of the joint doctoral program nor
of UCR. These requests will be made by SDSU Biology of the SDSU administration.
A. FTE Faculty
The Department of Biology at SDSU currently consists of 41 faculty members, of which 12
are in the department's Evolutionary Biology program area. In the Evolutionary Biology
Program Area, there are three full professors, six associate professors, and three assistant
professors who will participate in the joint Ph.D. program. It is anticipated that one additional
evolutionary biology faculty job search will be conducted during the 2007/2008 academic year.
The Evolutionary Biology Program Area has determined, depending upon hires in other
programs of the department, that a core of 13 to 15 SDSU evolutionary biology faculty is needed
to cover curricular needs (undergraduate and graduate) and maintain a steady state of 20 doctoral
students. The Department of Biology has developed a seven-year hiring plan to accommodate
this goal (and the hiring goals of the other program areas). The current evolutionary biology
faculty is sufficient to initiate the joint doctoral program.
The program will require a half-time 12 month position for a current SDSU Department of
Biology faculty member to serve as Joint Doctoral Program Coordinator. The Program
Coordinator will need to be knowledgeable about the joint doctoral program, about the resources
that are available at SDSU and UCR, and about the individuals at both institutions who are
members of the joint doctoral faculty. The Coordinator's role is a key one because of the duties
involved with coordinating the joint doctoral program at SDSU and advising the doctoral
students. Given this, the Coordinator will need to be very familiar with the research of all
members of the joint doctoral faculty and will need to work closely with them and with the UCR
EEOB Graduate Advisor in assigning students to advisors and guiding the early phases of the
students' graduate program.
None.
C. Computing costs
The SDSU Biology faculty request of their administration (Chair) that each SDSU graduate
student office be equipped with a PC or Mac platform computer with ethernet internet access.
Computers will also need software to support word processing, graphical, database, and
statistical functions, as well as be connected to a sufficient number of laser printers.
393
D. Equipment
Given the existing research equipment base in the SDSU Department of Biology, the joint
doctoral program can be initiated with minimal equipment acquisitions. The Evolutionary
Biology Program Area has state-of-the-art laboratory facilities for morphological and molecular
studies in evolutionary biology. Initial startup costs would include an additional ultracold
freezer, partitions and desks for restructuring graduate student office space, and a field vehicle.
The faculty of the Evolutionary Biology Program Area of the Department of Biology at
SDSU currently occupies offices and laboratories on the second third floors of the North and
South Life Sciences Buildings (as well as one office suite on the first floor of NLS), and the first
floor of the north wing of the Physical Sciences Building. Thirteen faculty offices, space for ~20
Master's graduate students, and the vertebrate collections manager are included. The program
area also has a computer lab and space for the vertebrate and entomological teaching and
research collections. In all, the Evolutionary Biology program area occupies ~1340 square feet
of office space and ~4740 square feet of laboratory facilities.
The other two SDSU Department of Biology program areas (i.e., Cell and Molecular
Biology; Ecology) occupy offices and laboratories in the following adjacent buildings: 1)
second, third, and fourth floors of the North Life Sciences Building, 2) third floor of the South
Life Sciences Building, and 3) the first and second floors of the north wing of the Physical
Sciences Building. In all, the Department occupies ~130,000 square feet of office, teaching, and
research space. Because of the "connectiveness" of the three program areas, interaction between
the program areas and use of the several departmental "common use" facilities is facilitated.
Office and laboratory space is adequate for the current faculty in the Evolutionary Biology
program area at SDSU. However, space is a major concern when future hires are taken into
consideration. Additional space is needed at SDSU to house the expanded number of M.S.
graduate assistants now supported by the Department of Biology and the approval of the
proposed joint Ph.D. program will further exacerbate that problem. Office space for the new
doctoral students will be required. Two to four doctoral students will share an office (depending
on office size; ~60 square feet/student). We estimate needing two offices for the first two years
of the program and then one more per year until there is adequate space to accommodate ~15
doctoral students (total of ~1000 square feet; at steady state of 20 doctoral students, ~4-5 of them
will be at UCR any given year). Space for student offices has been identified (LS 215, LS 216,
LS 270). As with the other two Program Areas in Biology, Evolutionary Biology will
experience a shortage of new space for new faculty hires 2-3 years. However, this is unrelated to
implementation of the joint doctoral program. The Evolutionary Biology Program Area will
work with the Chair and Dean to secure additional space in the future as the need arises.
The Department of Biology at SDSU maintains preserved collections of insects, plants, and
vertebrates. Current evolutionary biology graduate students and faculty extensively use these in
teaching and research. A conservative estimate places the holdings of its six major collections at
over 110,000 specimens. This figure breaks down as follows: Entomology, 55,000; Herbarium,
15,000; Herpetology, 14,000; Ichthyology, 30,000; Mammalogy, 2000; and Ornithology, 2500.
These collections are invaluable educational and research tools that many universities and
colleges cannot boast of having. The addition of the joint doctoral program will increase the
demand for these collections, as well as accelerate their growth (through doctoral student
394
research and collecting). Thus, additional resources (e.g., staffing, funding) will be needed in the
future to support the maintenance and expansion of these valuable collections.
The Department of Biology will provide the administrative support needed to provide
essential clerical assistance to the SDSU Joint Doctoral Program Coordinator. The
Administrative Assistant (AA) will be responsible for providing information about the program
to prospective students, for managing files of the current students, and for managing applications
for admission. Together, the AA and the Coordinator are the principal administrators of the joint
doctoral program at SDSU.
SECTION 7. GRADUATE STUDENT SUPPORT
Doctoral students will be supported by existing teaching assistantships at SDSU and/or by
research fellowships/assistantships funded by extramural contracts or grants. Thus, all students
will be supported while enrolled in the program. No students will be admitted to the program
who cannot be guaranteed five years of support. While in residence at UCR, students will be
supported by SDSU, and fees/tuition at UCR will be covered by transfer of funds to UCR. The
augmentation of up to 20 students in the UCR/SDSU joint doctoral program will, therefore, be a
net increase of no more than 4-5 students at a time at UCR, because the majority will spend only
one year in residence. During this year, they are expected to be supported by SDSU funds.
395
APPENDIX A
Joint-Doctoral Program in Evolutionary Biology
San Diego State University & University of California, Riverside
The Program
The Joint-Doctoral program in Evolutionary Biology (JDPEB) between the Department of Biology at SDSU and
the University of California, Riverside will award PhDs and provide training in areas of evolutionary biology that
include molecular evolution, genomics, paleontology, population biology, and systematics.
Need for the Program and Impact on SDSU
o
o
o
o
o
o
o
We wish to complete higher graduate training in Biology at SDSU by establishing a JD program between our
EB program area and UC Riverside. Two of the three program areas in Biology currently have JD programs:
Cell and Molecular Biology with UC San Diego, and Ecology with UC Davis.
UC Riverside is an excellent choice for co-hosting this JD program. UCR’s Department of Biology is ranked
by the National Research Council in the top 20% of Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior programs in the nation.
In addition, the proximity of UC Riverside to SDSU will enhance collaborations among the two institutions
and limit logistical constraints on the program.
Southern California is internationally recognized as one of the world's greatest biodiversity "hot-spots" due to
a high diversity of plants and animals, and the continuous discovery of new species. This JD program will
enhance scientific discovery in our region through student dissertations, inter-faculty collaborations and new
funding opportunities. This research will facilitate a better theoretical understanding of the processes that
generate and maintain biodiversity, and influence regional land management and conservation policies.
Over half of the graduated students of the MS program in EB at SDSU have gone on to PhD programs at
other universities. The high quality graduate students that we attract to our MS program and the rigorous
training they receive will easily translate into an exceptional joint doctoral program.
Additional Teaching Assistantships will be the primary source of JD student stipends. These positions are
needed for the establishment of inquiry-based discussion sections for our Biology core course: Genetics and
Evolution (Biology 352). Genetics is the only course required for the major that does not have a laboratory,
discussion or activity section, although it is almost universally taught with a laboratory at other universities.
Reorganization of Biology 352 will improve the quality of undergraduate instruction and training. New
Teaching Assistants will be also needed for other Biology lab courses as enrollment grows at SDSU.
Emerging and existing infectious diseases (whether animal, plant or human) pose threats to society through
disruptions in agriculture and health. A thorough grounding in evolutionary biology provides a basis for
understanding how these diseases evolve and adapt, and how to develop effective medical countermeasures.
Training of PhD students in Evolutionary Biology is needed to fill positions at universities and colleges,
museums, biotechnology companies, environmental consulting firms, and governmental agencies. Many of
these job opportunities are to be found in the local region and across the state.
Ability to Support the Program
o
o
o
EB faculty at SDSU are nationally recognized in their fields and highly productive. In the last five years,
SDSU EB faculty have published over 120 articles (over 11 per person) in prominent journals such as
American Naturalist, Developmental Biology, Evolution, Geology, Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology,
Molecular Ecology, Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, Science, PNAS, and Systematic Biology.
SDSU EB faculty are nationally competitive in obtaining external research funding. In the last five years, EB
faculty have received over $4 million in funding from sources such as the National Science Foundation,
National Geographic Society, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, U.S. Dept. of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, and U.S. Geological Survey. Comparable funding into the future will support for the JD program.
SDSU EB faculty are working towards novel sources of funding for the SDSU-UCR Joint Doctoral program
including: 1) Establishment of an endowment to support graduate field and laboratory research;
2) Submission of a National Science Foundation training grant; 3) Establishment of fellowships and
internships with local environmental consulting firms; 4) Sponsorship of graduate training by local biotech
companies; 5) Submission of computer science training grants in the emerging field of bioinformatics.

volutionary biology is the study of the history
of life and the processes that lead to its diversity.
Based on principles of adaptation, chance, and history,
evolutionary biology seeks to explain all the characteristics of organisms, and,
therefore, occupies a central position in the biological sciences.
ADVANCING UNDERSTANDING THROUGH RESEARCH
RELEVANCE OF EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY TO THE
NATIONAL RESEARCH AGENDA
To capitalize on evolutionary biology as an organizing and
integrating principle, we urge that:
The twenty-first century will be the “Century of Biology.”
Driven by a convergence of accelerating public concerns, the
biological sciences will be increasingly called on to address issues
vital to our future well-being: threats to environmental quality,
food production needs due to population pressures, new dangers
to human health prompted by the emergence of antibiotic
resistance and novel diseases, and the explosion of new technologies in biotechnology and computation. Evolutionary biology in
particular is poised to make very significant contributions. It will
contribute directly to pressing societal challenges as well as
inform and accelerate other biological disciplines.
Evolutionary biology has unequivocally established that
all organisms evolved from a common ancestor over the last
3.5 billion years; it has documented many specific events in
evolutionary history; and it has developed a well-validated
theory of the genetic, developmental, and ecological mechanisms
of evolutionary change. The methods, concepts, and perspectives of evolutionary biology have made and will continue to
make important contributions to other biological disciplines,
such as molecular and developmental biology, physiology, and
ecology, as well as to other basic sciences, such as psychology,
anthropology, and computer science.
In order for evolutionary biology to realize its full potential,
biologists must integrate the methods and results of evolutionary
research with those of other disciplines both within and outside
of biology. We must apply evolutionary research to societal problems, and we must include the implications of that research in
the education of a scientifically informed citizenry.
To further such goals, delegates from eight major professional scientific societies in the United States, whose subject
matter includes evolution, have prepared this document. It
includes contributions by other specialists in various areas.
Feedback on earlier drafts was elicited from the community of
evolutionary biologists in the United States, and the draft was
made public on the World Wide Web. The delegates arrived at
a series of recommendations that address the areas that follow.
■
evolutionary perspectives be incorporated as a foundation
for interdisciplinary research to address complex
scientific problems
■
evolutionary biologists work toward building meaningful
links between basic research and practical application
■
evolutionary biology play a more explicit role in the
overall mission of federal agencies that could benefit from
contributions made by this field
ADVANCING UNDERSTANDING THROUGH EDUCATION
We encourage major efforts to strengthen curricula in
primary and secondary schools, as well as in colleges and
universities, including:
■
support of supplemental training for primary school teachers
and/or midcareer training for secondary school science
teachers in evolutionary biology
■
greater emphasis on evolution in undergraduate college
curricula for biology majors and premedical students, with
accessible alternative courses for nonmajors
■
integration of relevant evolutionary concepts into the
postbaccalaureate training of all biologists and of

ADVANCING UNDERSTANDING THROUGH COMMUNICATION
We urge the following roles for evolutionary biologists:
400
■
communicating to federal agencies, and to other institutions
that support basic or applied research, the relevance of
evolutionary biology to the missions of these organizations
■
training the next generation of evolutionary biologists to be
aware of the relevance of their field to societal needs
■
informing the public about the nature, progress, and
implications of evolutionary biology
FOUNDA TIONS OF
▲
▲
EVOLUTION BY NATURAL SELECTION. Nineteenth-century
biologists Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace established
the foundations for evolutionary theory.
MORPHOLOGICAL AND MOLECULAR
VARIATION. Variation is a key
feature of evolution. Differentiation
in bill form among related species of
honeycreepers provides insight into
evolutionary adaptation for feeding.
Molecular variation provides insight
into genetic processes underlying
evolutionary change.
▲
PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS. Recent advances in DNA sequencing
and computation permit precise reconstruction of evolutionary
relationships among species. For example, molecular data have
enabled deeper understanding of the evolutionary origins of
the local species of the silverswords, a group of plants endemic
to Hawaii.
ADAPT ATION, CHANCE, AND
WHAT IS EVOLUTION?
iological evolution consists of change in
the hereditary characteristics of groups of
organisms over the course of generations.
From a long-term perspective, evolution is
the descent with modification of different
lineages from common ancestors. From a short-term perspective, evolution is the ongoing adaptation of organisms to
environmental challenges and changes. Thus evolution has
two major components: the branching of lineages and
changes within lineages.
Evolutionary biologists often work at the interface of
many subdisciplines of biology, leading to the development
of subject areas such as behavioral evolution, evolutionary
developmental biology, evolutionary ecology, evolutionary
genetics, evolutionary morphology, evolutionary systematics,
and molecular evolution. The subdisciplines of evolutionary
biology also have formed direct links with fields such as
statistics, economics, geology, anthropology, and psychology.
B
HOW IS EVOLUTION STUDIED?
Evolutionary biology draws on a wide range of methodologies
and conceptual approaches.
Methods for understanding the history of evolution
include observations of the fossil record and categorization
and classification of variations among living organisms.
Differences and similarities among species in anatomy,
genes, and other features can be analyzed by molecular and
statistical methods that enable us to estimate historical
relationships among species and the sequence in which their
characteristics evolved.
WHAT ARE THE GOALS OF
EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY?
Evolutionary biology seeks to explain the diversity of life:
the variety of organisms and their characteristics, and their
changes over time. Evolutionary biology also seeks to interpret and understand organismal adaptation to environmental
conditions. The two encompassing goals of evolutionary
biology are to discover the history of life on earth and to
understand the causal processes of evolution. Insights
achieved through efforts to meet these goals greatly enhance
our understanding of biological systems.

THE FOSSIL RECORD. Fossils provide clues
about the evolutionary origins of adaptations.
Intermediate, or transitional, forms in the fossil
record have shown that whales and other
cetaceans evolved from land-dwelling ancestors.

into societal issues. We live in a world that is undergoing
constant change on many levels, and much of that change
is a direct consequence of human activity. Evolutionary
biology can contribute explicitly to enhanced awareness
and prediction of mid- and long-term consequences of
environmental disturbances, whether they be deforestation,
application of pesticides, or global warming.
Distinctive perspectives on biology offered by evolutionary biology include emphasis on the interplay between
chance and adaptation as conflicting agents of biological
change, on variation as an inherent feature of biological
systems, and on the importance of biological diversity.
Variation is a key concept, since evolutionary change
ultimately depends on the differential success of competing
genetic lineages. The ultimate consequence of variation and
evolutionary divergence is biological diversity.
Biological species are not fixed entities, but rather are
subject to ongoing modification through chance or adaptation. Understanding why and how some species are able to
change apace with new environmental challenges is critical
to the sustainability of human endeavor.
Studies of ongoing evolutionary change employ observation and experimentation. Analysis of genetic variation
enables us to characterize mutation, genetic drift, natural
selection, and other processes of evolution. The “comparative
method” contrasts features of species that have adapted to
different environments. Sophisticated mathematical models
and analyses are frequently employed for both description
and predication.
WHY IS EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY IMPORTANT?
Evolutionary biology provides the key to understanding
the principles governing the origin and extinction of species.
It provides causal explanations, based on history and on
processes of genetic change and adaptation, for the full
sweep of biological phenomena, ranging from the molecular
to the ecological. Thus, evolutionary biology allows us to
determine not only how and why organisms have become
the way they are, but also what processes are currently acting
to modify or change them.
Response to change is a feature of evolution that is
becoming increasingly important in terms of scientific input

CONSERVATION GENETICS. Evolutionary analysis reveals extremely low levels
of genetic diversity among living cheetah, likely due to a dramatic population
decline—and associated inbreeding—thousands of years ago. This hinders the
cheetah’s ability to reproduce successfully, which threatens the species’ survival.
Such information is being used to develop management recommendations for this
endangered species.

EVOLUTION OF HUMAN GENETIC DISORDERS. Some
genetic diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, are caused by
mutations that occur at high frequencies in certain
human populations in Europe. Evolutionary geneticists
are working to understand how natural selection keeps
deleterious genes at such high frequencies. Their findings may lend insight to the broader physiological
impacts of the cystic fibrosis gene.

potentially useful new genes that might be transferred into
cultivated species. Studies of wild plants’ adaptations to
polluted or degraded soils contribute to the reclamation of
damaged land.
Agriculture and natural resources. The principles of
plant and animal breeding strongly parallel natural evolutionary mechanisms, and there is a rich history of interplay
between evolutionary biology and agricultural science.
Evolutionary insights play a clear role in understanding the
ongoing evolution of various crop pathogens and insect
pests, including the evolution of resistance to pest-control
measures. The methods of evolutionary genetics can be used
to identify different gene pools of commercially important
fish and other organisms, their migration routes, and differences in their physiology, growth, and reproduction.
Finding useful natural products. Many thousands
of natural products are used in medicine, food production
and processing, cosmetics, biotechnology, pest control, and
industry, but millions of other potentially useful natural
products have yet to be screened or even discovered.
Evolutionary principles allow a targeted search by predicting
adaptations to environmental selection pressures and by
n addition to the historical dimension,
evolution is an important feature in our
everyday lives. Evolution is happening all
around us: in our digestive tracts, in our
lawns, in woodland lots, in ponds and
streams, in agricultural fields, and in hospitals. For shortlived organisms such as bacteria and insects, evolution can
happen on a very short time scale. This immediacy brings
evolutionary biology directly into the applied realm. Indeed,
evolutionary biology has a long history and a bright future
in terms of its ability to address pressing societal needs.
Evolutionary biology has already made particularly strong
contributions in the following areas:
Environment and conservation. Evolutionary insights
are important in both conservation and management of
renewable resources. Population genetic methods are
frequently used to assess the genetic structure of rare or
endangered species as a means of determining appropriate
conservation measures. Studies of the genetic composition
of wild relatives of crop species can be used to discover

relationships has helped t0 guide research scientists to the discovery of new
natural compounds from Central and South American poison frogs. Potential
biomedical applications include heart-stimulating activity and use
in painkillers.

GENETIC RESOURCES FOR CROP IMPROVEMENT.
Evolutionary relationships between crops and wild
relatives provide insight into potentially useful
genes for crop improvement.
NEEDS
Biotechnology. The interplay between biotechnology
and evolutionary biology holds great promise for application
to important societal needs. As genetic engineering has
reached the field implementation stage, evolutionary biologists have been prominently involved in risk assessment as
well as interpretation of phenotypic consequences of transgene insertion. Finally, the automation of DNA sequencing
has made it possible to reconstruct the precise genealogical
relationship among specific genes, such as those of the
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Understanding humanity. Evolutionary biology has
contributed greatly to human understanding of ourselves by
describing our origins, our relationships to other living
things, and the history and significance of variation within
and among different groups of people. Evolutionary anthropologists, psychologists, and biologists have advanced
hypotheses on the biological bases of human culture and
behavior. In addition, the evolutionary framework for understanding humanity has had a profound impact on literature,
the arts, philosophy, and other areas of the humanities.
identifying organisms related to those that have already
yielded useful natural products. Exploration of related species
also has made it possible to develop natural products from
more accessible relatives of rare species in which natural
products have been found, as occurred when the rare and
endangered Pacific yew was found to contain a substance that
led to development of a drug (tamoxifen) useful in treating
breast cancer.
Human health and medicine. Methods and principles
from evolutionary biology have contributed to understanding
the links between genes and human genetic diseases, such
as cystic fibrosis. Evolutionary methods help to trace the
origins and epidemiology of infectious diseases, and to
analyze the evolution of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic
microorganisms. Evolutionary principles are used to interpret human physiological functions and dietary needs.
Methods developed by evolutionary geneticists are playing
an important role in mapping defective human genes, in
genetic counseling, and in identifying genetic variants that
alter risks for common systemic diseases and responses to
medical treatments.

CONTRIBUTIONS IN BIOL
DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY.
Recent studies of many different
types of animals suggest that
much of animal diversity has
evolved by changes in a common
set of regulatory genes. The
organization of such regulatory
genes has been studied in detail
in model organisms, such as fruit
flies, and parallel genetic effects
have been identified in a wide
range of organisms.

THE TREE OF LIFE. Advances in molecular, morphological,
and computational approaches have enabled the emergence
of a comprehensive framework for the evolutionary history
of all life on earth. The Tree of Life project provides a unified

volutionary biology has far-reaching
scientific impact. Among their
accomplishments in studying the history
and processes of evolution, evolutionary
biologists have:
Contributions to Other Biological Disciplines
Evolution is central to biological understanding. Biologists in
diverse fields regard at least a portion of what they do as evolutionary. Recent accomplishments to which evolutionary
biology has contributed include the following:
Molecular biology. Evolutionary approaches have contributed insight into the function and structure of molecular
processes within cells. Examples include reconstruction
and functional analysis of ancestral protein sequences, and
elucidation of the significance of different types of DNA.
Evolutionary research thus points the way to research on
fundamental molecular mechanisms.
Developmental biology. A resurgence in interaction
between developmental biology and evolutionary biology is
now under way, in part through comparisons among families
of genes that play critical roles in development. For example,
the same genes in organisms as different as insects and
established that all organisms have evolved from a
common ancestor over more than 3.5 billion years of
earth’s history
developed methods of inferring phylogenetic, or
genealogical, relationships among organisms
described patterns of diversification and extinction in
both the fossil record and contemporary ecosystems
developed and tested general theories that account for
the evolution of phenotypic traits, including complex
characters such as cooperative behavior and senescence
made substantial progress in understanding evolution at
the molecular level
elucidated many aspects of human evolution

HUMAN ORIGINS. Studies of variation
in modern populations, recent analysis
of DNA extracted from fossil remnants,
and an ever more complete fossil record
have provided deeper insight into the
evolutionary emergence of modern
humans and their culture.
UNDERST ANDING
mammals play surprisingly similar developmental roles in
some instances, and different roles in other cases. Such
studies help to identify the developmental functions of genes
and lead to a deeper understanding of the processes that
transform a fertilized egg into a complex adult.
Physiology and anatomy. Evolutionary biology has
long influenced the study of physiology and anatomy in
animals and plants, and has the potential to make many
other contributions that only now are being developed.
Some of these contributions will affect the study of human
physiology, including related areas such as clinical psychology. The logical perspectives, methods, and comparative
data of evolutionary biology can advance our understanding
of functional anatomy and physiological mechanisms, and
can be applied to areas such as medicine, agriculture, and
veterinary science.
Neurobiology and behavior. From its inception,
the field of animal behavior has had a strong evolutionary
base, for its goals have included understanding the evolutionary origin of behavioral traits and their adaptiveness.
The evolutionary study of animal behavior has joined with
comparative psychology in several areas of research, such as
the study of learning and the search for adaptive mechanisms
in human cognitive processes.
Applications beyond biology. There have long been
rewarding interactions between evolutionary biology and
other analytical fields, notably statistics and economics.
Some of the basic tools in statistics, including analysis of
variance and path analysis, were originally developed by
evolutionary biologists. Along the same lines, evolutionary
algorithms that mimic natural selection in biological
systems are currently being used in computer and
systems applications.

WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR
EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY?
■
Researchers in molecular and developmental biology, physiology, ecology, animal behavior, psychology, anthropology,
and other disciplines continue to adopt the methods, principles, and concepts of evolutionary biology as a framework.
Likewise, applied research in forestry, agriculture, fisheries,
human genetics, medicine, and other areas has increasingly
attracted scientists trained in evolutionary biology.
Evolutionary biologists have expanded their vision, addressing both basic questions throughout the biological disciplines and problems posed by society’s needs. As a result of
both the rapid growth of this “evolutionary work force” and
technological advances in areas such as molecular methodology, computing, and information processing, progress in
evolutionary biology and related areas is more rapid now
than ever before. With appropriate and necessary
support in education and research, the evolutionary
disciplines will make ever greater contributions to applied
and basic knowledge.

elucidating the processes that both cause and
constrain adaptations in physiology, endocrinology,
and anatomy
deriving a deeper understanding of the adaptive
meaning and mechanisms of behavior
developing a predictive theory of coevolution
among species, such as pathogens, parasites, and their
hosts, and of the effects of coevolution on populations
and ecological communities
CONCLUSION
Evolutionary biology plays a central role in the complexity of
biological systems. Evolution is the source of biocomplexity.
The continued and enhanced support of this field is critical
to maximizing the nation’s research progress in both basic
and applied arenas. In terms of societal needs for the twentyfirst century, the time to make the investment in evolutionary
biology is now, while there is still time either to change
current trends or to better prepare us to deal with their
consequences. Current and projected population levels
will result in increasing environmental impacts, increasing
pressure on food production, ever greater challenges to
biological diversity, and enhanced opportunities for the
emergence of new diseases. A healthy scientific base in
evolutionary biology is an essential element in preparing us
to address these issues. Evolutionary biology must be at the
heart of the nation’s research agenda in biology, just as it is
at the heart of the field of biology.
Applied Science
In the applied realm, evolutionary biologists are embracing
their social responsibilities. There are many ways in which
their scientific efforts can help humanity:
■
to understand and combat genetic, systemic, and
infectious diseases
■
to understand human physiological adaptations to
stresses, pathogens, and other causes of ill health
■
to improve crops and mitigate damage by pathogens,
insects, and weeds
■
to develop tools for analyzing human genetic diversity
as it applies to health, law, and the understanding of
human behavior
■
to use and develop biological resources in a
responsible manner
■
to remedy damage to the environment
■
to predict the consequences of global and regional
environmental change
■
to conserve biodiversity and discover its uses
Basic Science
In basic science, we stand at the threshold of:
■
fully documenting biodiversity and describing the
phylogenetic relationships among all organisms
■
more completely understanding the causes of
major changes in the history of life
■
discovering and explaining processes of evolution at
the molecular level
■
understanding how developmental mechanisms
evolve and give rise to new anatomical structures

APPENDIX E. SUPPLEMENTAL ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Because this is a joint program between two institutions, application for admission and fees
must be submitted simultaneously to the Graduate Division at UCR and to the Graduate Division
at SDSU. Instructions for applying are available in the respective graduate catalogs. Application
to the Joint Doctoral Program in Evolutionary Biology requires that the following information be
provided to each Graduate Division:
• The appropriate application forms for both campuses, including the statement of purpose. It
is important for students to define one or two areas of potential research in the statement of
purpose. The statement should reflect serious intent, focus, maturity, motivation, and the
ability to organize and articulate thoughts on complex subjects. Research experience is
preferred, but not required. Such experience helps to define interest and focus, and proven
success with research is a positive indicator for success in the program.
• Three letters of recommendation from faculty or other persons who have known the applicant
in an academic or research capacity.
• Results of the GRE general test. Verbal, quantitative, and analytical sections of the general
test are of equal importance. There is no minimum score required for consideration.
Although there are exceptions, GRE scores are taken as indicators of ability in various skills
needed for graduate school.
• Results of the TOEFL and TSE are required of international students.
• Transcripts of academic work already completed. Upper division or graduate GPA is more
important than overall GPA. The Graduate Division of UCR requires a minimum upperdivision GPA of 3.0.
The Joint Admissions Committee will review applications for admission, select up to
approximately four students per year to be admitted to the joint doctoral program, and forward
these admission recommendations to each of the Graduate Divisions. The admissions committee
will especially consider upper division GPA, letters of recommendation, degree of preparedness
for graduate school (including course work and research experience), and statement of purpose.
Before a student can be admitted to the program, faculty advisers/sponsors from both SDSU and
UCR must agree on the student’s admission to the joint program.

Dear Dr. Berta,
I write in strong support of the establishment of a joint doctoral program in
Evolutionary Biology between the Department of Biology at San Diego State University
and the University of California, Riverside. Both of these campuses have strong programs
in evolutionary biology that will benefit from their joint venture. In particular, the faculty
of San Diego State have produced many excellent master’s students in evolutionary
biology that have gone on to complete doctoral degrees at other campuses, such as UCLA
and UC Berkeley. It is clear that they can and should mentor PhD students and this
program will allow them to do so. A new graduate program in evolutionary biology is a
welcome addition to California higher education. The importance of training additional
evolutionary biologists has never been greater. With the explosion of genomic data, we
need scientists that can explore these data and their implications within an evolutionary
framework. Moreover, the ongoing crisis in loss of biodiversity demands additional, welltrained minds to tackle the problem. I am very enthusiastic about this joint venture and
confident that it will be a successful program.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Prof. Hayashi,
I enthusiastically support the establishment of a Joint Doctoral Program in Evolutionary Biology
(JDPEB) between the Graduate Program in Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology
(EEOB) at the University of California, Riverside and the Department of Biology at San Diego
State University (SDSU). Evolutionary Biology is the foundation of the biological sciences.
Thus, there are numerous opportunities for Ph.D. students trained in this discipline, both in
academia and in the private sector. The joint doctoral program between UC Riverside and SDSU
will build upon shared interests and ongoing collaborations among faculty and students at the
two institutions, and will provide valuable new opportunities for both institutions as well. Our
two institutions are sufficiently close to each other to facilitate frequent interactions between
faculty and students at the institutions.
Evolution is the foundation underlying all disciplines in the biological sciences. In addition,
coupled with the explosion of genetic information provided by genomics, applications of
evolutionary biology have enormous impact on biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry.
It would be wonderful timing to establish this new Joint Doctoral Program in Evolutionary
Biology in 2009, the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth.
As Dean of the College of Sciences, I am committed to working with the Provost and the Vice
President for Graduate Affairs at SDSU to provide the resources needed to sustain this program.
Sincerely,

Dr. Don Cooksey
Dean, College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences
Dear Don:
I am pleased to submit for your consideration a proposal for a joint doctoral program
in Evolutionary Biology between the Graduate Program in Evolution, Ecology, and
Organismal Biology at the University of California, Riverside and the Department of
Biology at San Diego State University. EEOB faculty members voted on the proposal
and were unanimously in favor of creating this new program. Support for the program
is also evident from the large number of faculty from both institutions who have
indicated an interest in actively participating in the program.
EEOB faculty at UC Riverside and Department of Biology faculty at SDSU have a
strong record of high profile, extramurally funded research in evolutionary biology.
The creation of the joint doctoral program in Evolutionary Biology will bring together
talented faculty from both institutions. Graduate students in the joint program will
provide the nexus for novel and integrative research projects that build on
collaborations and synergism between faculty members at both institutions. UCR and
SDSU will both be strengthened by uniting our complementary and overlapping
strengths within evolutionary biology into a single program.
The joint program in Evolutionary Biology is anticipated to be a six-year program,
with a steady state enrollment of up to 20 students. Students in the program will take
courses at both institutions. Graduate students in UCR’s EEOB program are also
expected to benefit from the new program in numerous ways. For example, UCR
EEOB students can potentially access laboratory facilities at SDSU and field stations
that are maintained through SDSU. The intellectual depth of the graduate EEOB
program will also be enhanced through the creation of the joint UCR/SDSU program.
Administrative expenses and workload related to joint admission, coordination, and
the transfer of necessary records will be handled by SDSU. SDSU will also cover the
program costs (i.e., joint doctoral student stipends, tuition, some research funds) for
the required one-year residence at UCR. Indeed, UCR’s administration of the new
program will require only a few additional resources including office space for joint
doctoral students, mileage reimbursement associated with travel between UCR and

SDSU, and funds for UCR graduate students to have lunch with SDSU seminar
speakers in the JDPEB-sponsored seminar series. My budget request on behalf of
EEOB for operation of the JDPEB is attached as a separate memo.
Thanks in advance for considering the JDPEB proposal.
Sincerely,
Mark Springer

[1] The Biology department has 9 primary faculty in Evolutionary Biology and 4 affiliated faculty. A tenth position in EB is under search in AY 07/08. An eleventh is part of the department academic plan, to be requested in a future year.
[2] Release time and partial summer salary is requested for the coordinator, comparable to the other JD programs in Biology. The compensation ramps up over 2 years, along with a 5% increase during year 2.
[3] Based on three SDSU funded teaching associates at $23,000 per year. The Evolutionary Biology faculty intend to increase the number of JD students beyond this using external funding (approx. one additional new student per year).
[4] Biology is currently short one admnistrative assistant. When that position is filled, no additional clerical support will be required.
[5] $1,000 per student for supplies annually. 4 new students added annually. Also, $500 to develop and print recruitment materials in AY 08/09
[6] Mileage reimbursement for an average of 1 trip annually per faculty and student in the program. 200 miles round trip @ $0.485/mile for 9 persons (08/09), and 4 additional persons per year thereafter
[7] Recruitment travel for top 5 recruits @ $750
[8] The program requests $48,000 for a field vehicle, ultracold freezer and office desks, furniture and partitions
[9] For growth of 4 students per year @ $3,102.
[10] Non-Resident tuition waivers for 3 of 4 new students annually - $339 per unit x 18 units (average unit load) x 3 new students.
[11] Assuming steady state of 3 resident students at UC Riverside and one nonresident (international). Three quarters @ $3271.18 per quarter for residents, and $8267.18 per quarter for nonresidents.

Appendix H. UCR Budget
VOICE: (951) 827-5903
FAX: (951) 827-4286
EEOB’s Requested Annual Budget for JDPEB
1. Travel expenses for UCR faculty who travel to SDSU for Qualifying Exams,
Committee Meetings, and Dissertation Defenses:
22 round trips (~ 200 miles per round trip) per year @ $100 per trip based on current
mileage reimbursement rates (50.5 cents per mile).
This assumes an average of three new students per year and a standing crop of 18
students, which will result in three oral exams per year, three PhD defenses, and
probably an additional 12 trips per year for advisory committee meetings. This sums
to 18 round trips per year. There will also need to be a meeting of the admissions
committee. This means two additional round trips per year for two committee
members.
Subtotal = $2,200
2. Reimbursement for SDSU faculty members who travel to UCR to speak in the
JDPEB-sponsored seminar series
Three faculty speakers per year (~ 200 miles per round trip @ $100 per trip based on
current mileage reimbursement rates (50.5 cents per mile)
Subtotal = $300 per year
3. Funds for UCR graduate students (EEOB, JDPEB) to have lunch with JDPEBsponsored seminar speakers
15 lunches per year ($10 per lunch)
Subtotal = $150
Total Requested Budget = $2,650 per year

students in the Biology program. We decide on what courses to keep and which to remove from
the program. I feel that my service on this committee is especially important for the future of the
department and the University.
2. Member, Cell and Molecular Biology Master’s Committee, Fall 2004-Present. The purpose
of this committee is to evaluate the applications of prospective graduate students and decide who
is best suited for the program.
3. Member, Bioinformatics Master’s Program Committee, Fall 2004-Present. The purpose of
this committee is to develop a comprehensive plan for creating a program targeting biologists,
computer scientists and chemists.
4. Advisory Member of the Distributed Computing Committee, Fall 2004-Present. This
committee involved the cooperation of a number of faculty interested in a distributed computer
network on campus. Using specialized software, distributed computing aims to utilize unused
processor cycles for scientific calculations. For example, at night or over weekends, computers
around campus sit idle, doing essentially no productive work. Distributed computing approaches
utilize these empty cycles to analyze large scientific data sets and can potentially provide a
massive free computer resource to the entire SDSU research community. We have succeeded in
establishing a very small but effective distributed network of computers. Recently, we gained
472
10 November, 2007
permission from several lab coordinators to increase the number of computers connected in the
college and now have more than 70 computers to work with. This past year, we have been
integrating our work with Mary Thomas in the Computer Science department who is putting
together a large NSF proposal for Grid computing on campus.
5. Department of Computer Science Search committee, Spring 2007. I served on the search
committee as the outside department member for a Bioinformatics position. We successfully
recruited a new colleague from this search.
Additional University Service:
1. Provided lectures for the Bridges to the Future Program, Summer 2006 and 2007. Bridges to
the Future is a joint program with local community colleges that helps minority
undergraduate students transition into the sciences as they prepare to start classes at San
Diego State University. For the past two summers, I have taught classes for the Bridges
program at the behest of Dr. Paul Paolini. This class included a two hour-long Bioinformatics
lab.
2. Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU-NSF), Summer 2007. This interesting and
innovative program, entitled “Mathematics Research Experience for Undergraduates and
Teachers”, brought together mathematicians, statisticians and biologists to give students and
teachers enough background that they might perform hands-on research in mathematical
biology. My role was to teach the students both basic biology, Bioinformatics and
phylogenetic theory to that they might research bacteriophage evolution.
3. Volunteered two weeks of teaching time (4 lectures) of Biology 610: Advanced Topics in
Molecular Biology in the spring semesters of 2003 to 2007.
4. Participated in Laboratory Talk/Tours with the Evolutionary Biology Program Area.
5. Presented lectures on microbial diversity and evolution in Dr. Marshal Hedin’s graduate
seminar class.
6. Worked on discussion group assignments with graduate students in Dr. Bohonak’s Biology
770 class Spring and Fall 2006.
7. Presented biology lectures for Computational Science Bioinformatics course taught by Dr.
Faramarz Valafar.
8. Presented special seminars to the Department of Computational Science and Applied
Mathematics at SDSU.
9. Donated lab space to the research group of adjunct faculty Dr. Forest Rohwer in Spring and
Summer 2003. The 10 plus members of Dr. Rohwer’s lab were moved from their temporary
space and did not have a place to work or study. Dr. Rohwer was subsequently hired by the
department as an Assistant Professor.
10. Presented two lectures on the BLAST algorithm to the Biology 467 Lab course taught by Dr.
Forest Rohwer in Spring 2005.
Community Service
Served on the High Tech High School Board of Directors, 2004-2007.
Presented lecture at Scripps as part of a course entitled “Chemical and Biological Principles of
evolution”, Spring 2004.
Presented microbiology lectures at UC San Diego, Spring 2006.

SOFTWARE
1.
2000-present; most recent upgrades August 2007
Macintosh Platform Software. I continue to support and upgrade a package of data acquisition and
analysis programs available as >freeware= on the Web (http://warthog.ucr.edu). Although somewhat
specialized for studies of gas exchange physiology, the programs are widely applicable to a variety
of uses involving recording from scientific instruments and then analyzing results in a time-based
graphical (“stripchart”) format. Known users number at least 40 worldwide (there may be more since
I do not keep track of downloads), and the software is used for both teaching and research. During
the past few years, major accomplishments include
• Addition of several new acquisition and analysis functions, including telemetric heartrate monitoring
• Interfacing to several new analog-to-digital boards
• A n upgraded application for 2-dimensional motion analysis from video records (position,
speed, acceleration, distance, etc.)
• Porting to a new operating system (Mac OS X in various versions), which required
extensive re-writing of all of three programs (the older versions continue to be
supported).

RESEARCH INTERESTS
Community Ecology and Conservation Biology, particularly how environmental factors
interact to determine species diversity and community composition, and how the relative
importance of those factors varies. My research has focused on semi-arid shrublands
throughout the West, with emphasis on birds and plant communities; and conservation
biology of vertebrates from a landscape ecological perspective.
Avian Ecology, particularly behavioral aspects such as habitat and diet selection,
reproductive biology, and community ecology. Especially interested in modelling habitat
associations of passerine birds and documenting changes in these associations through
time and space.
706
200
Multivariate Statistics, especially application of multivariate statistical analysis to
biological problems, and the conceptualization of ecological systems in a multivariate
framework.

PAPERS AND SEMINARS PRESENTED
I have authored or coauthored approximately 130 papers or posters that have been
presented at professional meetings and symposia since 1974.
Additionally, since 1980 I have presented 42 invited seminars to departments at various
colleges and universities in the United States, Canada, England, Australia, Sweden,
Finland, Denmark, and New Zealand. A detailed list of all papers and seminars presented
is available on request.
RESEARCH IN PROGRESS
The interface between conservation biology and landscape composition and structure. In
particular, we are investigating ecological mechanisms producing “edge effects” in
natural areas adjacent to a spectrum of urban development and activity. In related
projects we are also examining plant and animal communities within riparian areas in
urbanizing landscapes (with multiple collaborators).
Developing, refining, and implementing new approaches to modeling habitat associations
of animals and plants. We intend to apply these models to current problems in
conservation of species and selection and design of natural reserves, and to understanding
the niche relationships of species as a major component of their basic ecology. Initially
regional, this project now includes work throughout Baja California and US-Mexico
borderlands (with K. Preston, R. Estrella-Rodriges, and others).
Impacts of habitat alteration (primarily due to fire, grazing, and military activities) on
distribution and abundance of passerines in shrubsteppe habitat. Our particular interest is
how landscape level changes in habitat influence ecology and reproductive success (with
S. Knick and others).
Impacts of phonotactic parasitoid flies on ecology, behavior, and evolution of an
acoustically signalling cricket. Specifically, how does song structure vary under
conflicting pressures of natural and sexual selection (with M. Zuk and L. Simmons).
As a component of the NSF-supported National Technology Science Center for
Embedded Networked Sensors, our primary scientific objective is to design, develop,
evaluate, and deploy densely distributed, continuously operating, long-lived, wireless
sensor networks appropriate for measuring diverse environmental, physiological, and
ecological variables within natural ecosystems (with M. Hamilton and M. Allen).
TEACHING EXPERIENCE AND ACADEMIC ADVISING
During my tenure at Bowling Green State University, my principal academic duties
involved graduate instruction. The major courses that I taught were Population and
718
212
Community Ecology, Biostatistics (univariate, inferential), Advanced Biostatistics
(multivariate, descriptive), and Ornithology (graduate/advanced undergraduate).
Additionally, each year I directed a graduate seminar on some topic in community
ecology. I also taught an undergraduate course in population and community ecology
and participated in an environmental sciences course for non-biology majors.
At UC-Riverside I have taught a course in vertebrate natural history for non-biology
majors, and regularly taught a portion of the undergraduate core course in population
biology. I now teach an upper-division field course on evolutionary ecology of terrestrial
vertebrates. I also teach an annual graduate seminar in ecology, participate in two
graduate core courses in general ecology and population and community ecology, and
have created a new graduate course in ecological multivariate analysis.
Since 1982 I have signed 30 Ph.D dissertations (10 as major advisor) and 44 M.S. theses
(15 as major advisor). Currently I have 10 Ph.D and 4 M.S. students, and serve on an
additional 2 Ph.D. and 1 M.S. committees.
ACADEMIC SERVICE
I normally referee 10-15 manuscripts per year for journals of professional societies and
for government agencies. I also serve as ad hoc reviewer of 1-2 proposals per year for
National Science Foundation. I also served as a Consulting Editor to Studies in Avian
Biology No. 13, Avian Foraging: Theory, Methodology, and Applications.
Beginning March 1993 I began service as Editor of Studies in Avian Biology, a
monograph series published by the Cooper Ornithological Society. Since then I have
published nine symposia proceedings and two monographs, and currently have one
monograph and two symposia in press. I end my tenure as editor in January 2004, to
become President-Elect for the Cooper Society, to serve as president 2005-2007.
From November 1992 through March 1996 I served as a member of the Board of Editors
for Ecology/Ecological Monographs. In that capacity I reviewed approximately 35
manuscripts per year, with responsibility for final rejection/acceptance of manuscripts.
In July 1997 I was invited to serve on the board as an “Editor Emeritus” for a limited
number of manuscripts in avian ecology.
I served on the National Science Foundation's panels for Conservation and Restoration
Biology, December 1993 and January 1995.
At Bowling Green I served on a variety of elective and appointive departmental and
university service committees between 1980-1989 (17 committee-years), most notably
Honors (3 years), Library (7 years), and Executive (2 years). I also served on two chair
selection/evaluation and two faculty search committees.
719
213
At UC Riverside I have served on several faculty search committees, on the Chancellor's
Advisory Committee for Non-Senate Academic Affairs, and on a College Task Force that
created an undergraduate program in Conservation Biology. I am Campus Director of
the UCR Natural Reserve System and serve as UCR's representative to the Universitywide NRS Advisory Committee (Fall 1991 - present). I am also Associate Director, UCR
Center for Conservation Biology.
I prepared a workplan on behalf of the Dean's Office, College of Natural and Agricultural
Sciences, UCR, for native plant research, monitoring, and management funded by
Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. $32,000, 15 May 1991 - 15 May
1992; $479,000, 15 May 1991, permanent endowment.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPERIENCE
Academic Coordinator and Director of the UC-Riverside Natural Reserve System (1990
– present). My office on the Riverside campus bears administrative responsibility for
eight of the 34 reserves maintained by the University of California system. I provide
leadership to a diverse staff of resident reserve directors and stewards (12 total), integrate
reserve functions with a variety of campus instructional and research activities, supervise
a total budget of about $750,000, and represent the campus interests on the Universitywide advisory committee.
At the request of the UC-NRS Systemwide Director I chaired a committee to provide an
external 10-year review of UCSB’s Coal Oil Point Reserve in fall 2003, and of UCSD’s
four reserves in winter 2006. I currently serve as chair of the Ad Hoc Bond Fund
Evaluation Committee, which reviews systemwide reserve applications for matching
funds for facilities development funded through Proposition 84 ($25 million).
