"The Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in [QERM] provides a
unique opportunity for students to study the application of statistical,
mathematical, and decision sciences to a broad array of ecology and
resource management problems . . . .All students entering QERM are expected
to have either a strong mathematical or biological background with
ecological interests. Most important is an interest and an awareness of
applying quantitative methods to natural resource
management."
