About Us

The ConBio SIG at YSE is a dynamic community of graduate students from diverse academic backgrounds who share a common passion for conservation of wildlife and natural spaces. The goal of the ConBio SIG is to provide students with a space to come together to share personal experiences and insights about conservation biology. We encourage participation from all specializations and collaborate across disciplines! The ConBio SIG fosters a supportive environment that fosters academic growth through guest lectures and workshops as well as professional and social development through quarterly socials with conservation and research professionals. Events are shaped by member interest and goals for the academic year. Join us for a year of ConBio adventures, knowledge sharing, networking, and guidance for internships and job searches in the realm of wildlife conservation and natural space preservation.
