渔业生物学哲学博士

犹他州立大学是该州唯一一所专门研究自然资源的大学，而渔业生物学计划是全美为数不多的让学生有机会专注于淡水鱼类种群的计划之一。渔业生物学课程的学生研究河流，湖泊和湿地生态系统。该计划重点介绍淡水系统的生态学，重要渔业的管理，河流，河岸和湿地地区的恢复以及湖泊和河流中动植物种群的监测和保护。每个学生都有自己的研究生委员会为他们制定的个性化学习计划，并且学生能够在校园的其他系中修读课程，例如生物学，土木和环境工程。这使学生能够在与鱼类种群和水生生态系统有关的领域进行广泛的教育。
Utah State University is the only university in the state with a college devoted to the study of natural resources, and the fisheries biology program is one of the few programs in the nation where students have the opportunity to focus on freshwater fish populations. Students in the fisheries biology program study river, lake, and wetland ecosystems. The program highlights the ecology of freshwater systems, management of important fisheries, restoration of stream, riparian, and wetland areas, and the monitoring and protection of plant and animal populations in lakes and rivers. Each student has an individualized plan of study created for them by their graduate committee, and students are able to take courses in other departments on campus, such as biology and civil and environmental engineering. This allows students to gain a broad education in areas related to fish populations and aquatic ecosystems.
