Subject: 2 Graduate Opportunities

 

1) Please help us to get the word out about this exciting new Masters
program: 

Conservation Leadership Program (Conservation Leadership Through Learning)

Society is faced with some of the greatest challenges in history, from
climate change to biodiversity loss to energy security and beyond. We need
leaders who think differently, embrace complexity, and see the human and
environmental condition as one intricate system. The Conservation Leadership
Program is a new 24-month Master of Science degree that will prepare
students to be a part of the next generation of conservation leaders who
will tackle these dynamic challenges. In August 2012, approximately 20
students will begin an intensive educational journey in the United States
and Mexico.  Also referred to as Conservation Leadership Through Learning
(CLTL), this program merges transdisciplinary university education with
real-world action to train leaders who can deliver on-the-ground benefits
for conservation and communities. By reaching far beyond the classroom
walls, students will develop the knowledge and real-world skills to become
effective conservation leaders making a difference for the environment and
people's lives.

CLTL is a partnership between Colorado State University's Warner College of
Natural Resources and El Colegio de la Frontera Sur in Mexico. For more

through January 9th, 2012 for the cohort starting in August 2012.

2) Our Dean at the University of Montana last year acknowledged our [The
Philosophy Department's] commitment to the masters emphasis in environmental
philosophy by giving us two additional TA positions for incoming graduate
students. Please let any suitable undergraduates know about our program and
