Welcome
The Graduate Student Symposium is a tradition in the EEMB Department. The symposium provides a space for graduate students conducting research in ecology, evolution, conservation, and marine sciences to practice their presentation skills and share their work with the greater UCSB community. The event is open to anyone at UCSB including undergraduate students, post-doctoral fellows, staff, and faculty. We encourage all to attend as this annual symposium is a wonderful opportunity to meet the students in the department and learn about ongoing research.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
The EEMB Graduate Student Symposium supports diversity, equity, and inclusion in our department and STEM fields. Through our symposium, we aim to foster a more connected department community and open our research to a diverse audience. We are committed to a policy against discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, pregnancy, disability, age, ancestry, marital status, citizenship, sexual orientation, or veteran status.
