2015 May 29

Windermere, Fla., resident Emily Ellis, a master's student in the Global Field Program from Miami University's Project Dragonfly, will travel to Baja in summer 2015. Ellis will study the diverse desert and marine landscapes of two richly diverse biosphere reserves through ecological and social field methods.

Since the program began 10 years ago, Project Dragonfly's Earth Expeditions graduate courses - on which the master's programs are based - have engaged more than 1,700 people in firsthand educational and scientific research at critical conservation field sites in Africa, Australia, Asia and the Americas. Dragonfly is located in the department of biology at Miami University, a state university in Oxford, Ohio. Miami was established in 1809 and is listed as one of the eight original Public Ivies.
