Teaching & Mentorship
Thank you for your interest in the
SES research group at UBC!
Our group is comprised of highly motivated individuals who are curious about advancing understanding about the natural world and the role of humans within in. We conduct analytically rigorous, empirically informed, interdisciplinary research with a strong social science component.
Our Aims.
Collectively and as individuals, we seek to advance knowledge, inform environmental decision making, and spark transformative change towards a world that is better for people and nature. At the centre of everything we do is a commitment to supporting one another in our shared learning, professional development and overall wellbeing.
Expectations
& Fit.
The SES group is a good fit for you if you are interested in applying social science perspectives and methods to complex conservation and resource management challenges. Critical thinking, the capacity for independent work, excellent communication skills and a collaborative, generous spirit, are all key considerations for recruitment in our group.
You can expect several things from me. I seek to create a rich environment for academic development comprised of a diverse, inclusive and supportive research community; funding; productive workspace; high levels of contact and engagement (e.g. through weekly individual meetings as well as research group meetings); and opportunities for collaboration with colleagues within and beyond UBC.
If you are interested in pursuing a graduate degree with me, please email me your CV, GPA or equivalent, and a brief description of your research interests and how they are aligned with the SES group. Please note the Faculty of Forestry’s application deadlines. I look forward to hearing from you!
