“The CFW shaped my career tremendously. I networked with so many people at conferences, on campus and in seminars. It’s how I landed my first job out of college.”

“During my time as a Ph.D. student, I was immersed in research that bridged science and management, and encouraged connections with federal, state and local organizations. The CFW encouraged and supported me in building a career in applied science for environmental management, where I have been able to successfully apply the skills and acknowledge I’ve learned in the academic and federal sector.”

“My network during my Ph.D. was one of the most fulfilling, genuinely caring and fun groups of people I’ve ever worked with. You get what you put in, and the people at the Watershed Ecology Lab will always be there to support you, personally and professionally. My proudest achievement is the relationships I built.”
