Professor
E-mail: todda@sunstroke.sdsu.edu Information for Prospective Graduate Students Welcome to those of you who may be interested in being part of the Fish Ecology Lab and the graduate program at SDSU. Currently I have five graduate students (1 Ph.D. and 4 M.S. students). I look for and expect motivated, hard-working individuals who will be diligent and enthusiastic in their course work and especially their research. I encourage you to have a look at our lab web site, where you can find our current research interests and projects. If you are interested in becoming a graduate student in my lab, I request the following from you: (1) Contact me by e-mail and send a curriculum vitae or resume and include your GPA and general GRE scores if you have them. (2) Also include brief statements as to your reasons that you wish to pursue an advanced degree, your general or specific research interests, and your long-term career goals. Before considering any graduate student for acceptance, I require meeting them personally at SDSU. Such a meeting is important for me to assess your fit to the lab and to discuss research interests and for you to meet me as a prospective adviser, meet graduate students currently in the lab, and to evaluate whether my lab is a good fit for you. I appreciate your interest in my lab and the effort it takes to provide materials and to visit me at SDSU. I try to respond to prospective students promptly, although sometimes I am away for research, conferences, or other business. |
