Dr. Bennett's Graduate Students

I am looking to take on graduate students interested in working on vertebrate paleontology problems. If you are interested, get in touch with me.

Note that graduate study in vertebrate paleontology can be approached from the biological side or the geological side, but either way is fine and almost every vertebrate paleontologist has one foot on either side of the dividing line between biology and geology. For example, although I lean toward the biological side, I have done stratigraphic fieldwork and published on the stratigraphy of the Niobrara Formation. In the past, vertebrate paleontology students at FHSU necessarily worked with Dr. Zakrzewsky in Geosciences because there was no paleontologist in Biological Sciences, but now vertebrate paleontology students can chose to work with me in Biological Sciences.
