Since 2002, the CESI Program has supported the implementation of several university fellowship programs. These programs are designed to train students in Everglades science, while at the same time supporting short projects to address specific research needs or synthesize existing Everglades science. The fellowship funded through this CESI project supported the work of two masters students, two doctoral students, and two postdoctoral associates from Florida Atlantic University. Project funds also helped support six additional undergraduate and graduate internships. The resulting investigations span a wide diversity of academic disciplines and examine a broad range of topics of importance to understanding the Everglades landscape.
