About this position

The Waterloo Wetland Lab at the University of Waterloo is recruiting a PhD student for a project on invasive species research, with a specific focus on water soldier (Stratiotes aloides) in Lake Simcoe. The project addresses urgent applied ecology questions around invasive aquatic plant management, treatment effectiveness, and native plant responses in wetland ecosystems.

This opportunity is especially relevant for students interested in environmental science, biology, wetland ecology, aquatic ecosystems, and invasive species management. The post states that the position is fully funded and mentions a stipend of $29,202/year plus a TAship.

Eligibility highlights: applicants should have an MSc in Ecology, Environmental Science, or a related field, with a minimum GPA of 80%. Botany and field experience are preferred, and the ability to work on water and in wetlands is required.

How to apply: send a CV, official or unofficial transcript, and a cover letter describing your research interests and relevant courses or work experience to Rebecca Rooney at [email protected]. More information is available via the linked Waterloo Graduate Studies page.
