2020 Ecological Integration Symposium

 

UPDATE: Due to COVID-19 precautions, the EIS conference will be held virtually.  Join us at https://sites.google.com/tamu.edu/eis/virtual-symposia_1 on Thursday April 2nd and Friday April 3rd, 2020.


Another year and it’s time for Ecological Integration Symposium (EIS) 2020!

Join us in Rudder Tower from 8:30am-5pm on Thursday April 2nd and Friday April 3rd, 2020.

The EIS is a COMPLETELY FREE conference on campus where students can listen to top ecologists from around the world, peers’ research being conducted at Texas A&M (and nearby universities), as well as have the opportunity to present their own research.  This year, our theme is “Ecology in the Anthropocene,” highlighting ecosystems in a human dominated world.

This year the students have designed their own website to increase participation by committee members.  After the event, the student site will be archived here on the EEB website.  The website address is https://sites.google.com/tamu.edu/eis/home

What is EIS?

Texas A&M University’s Ecological Integration Symposium (EIS) is an annual interdisciplinary event that brings together a diverse group of leading scientists and students from the fields of ecology, evolutionary biology, and conservation. The symposium provides an excellent opportunity for both local and visiting students to showcase their work and engage in meaningful dialogue with the invited speakers.

Continuing the tradition of EIS since its inception in 2000, we are a graduate student-run event that is open to the public and free to attend.

The organizing committee is grateful to our sponsors for their support and to the large body of faculty, students and public who have made this event possible.

For questions, comments for more information, email us at theeis.tamu@gmail.com.
