Now accepting undergraduate students for independent research (BIOL 4980 Credit).
If interested please send a Resume (including GPA) and a brief description of your career interests.
Students should have had Genetics (BIOL 3000), a statistics course, and preferably Evolution and Systematics (BIOL 3030).
Outstanding students without these courses should still contact me as you may work in the lab while taking these courses and later work towards an independent project.
Interested in working in the Stevison Lab over the summer?
Auburn Undergraduate Research Fellowship (Due Feb 5th)
Paid positions also available directly through the lab (Federal Work Study eligible students strongly encouraged to apply!)
Interested in joining the team?
