Prospective Students & Contact
I am interested in mentoring students and researchers at all levels (undergraduate, masters, and post-doctoral) who are creative, independent, hard working, and willing to challenge themselves intellectually. If you're a prospective student interested in applying to my lab, you should first check out the general information on our department's website for more information on the Biology and Wildlife Biology Undergraduate Programs and the Master's in Biology graduate program. This will give you basic details on our minimum admission requirements, cost of study, financial support, and timeline.
​
Prospective Master's Students
If you are interested in applying to the Master's program and to be a part of my research lab, please email me (dmaag@wtamu.edu) first to see if I am able to accept any new students in the next academic year cycle.
