countries. In the latter cases, a research scientist at the field
station, who also is an appointed CSU affiliate faculty, will be
designated to supervise the student's progress. Prospective
students engaged in rodent or bird control operations or related
research in VPM in tropical countries are urged to consider this
offering for specialized graduate education. Programs lead to the
master of science or doctor of philosophy degrees.

During the 4 years this program has existed, 37 students, including
individuals from Bangladesh, Colombia, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Malawi,
Nicaragua, Nigeria, Sudan, and Venezuela have enrolled. Several of
these students have completed or are in the process of completing
advanced degrees in a variety of topics relating to bird hazards to
aircraft, bird pests in Bangladesh, vertebrate pests of Venezuela,
and wildlife management in Sudan.

DWRC also continued to assist graduate student researchers in
Vertebrate Pest Management at Bowling Green State University, at
the University of California at Davis, at North Carolina State
University, and at the University of the Philippines at Los Banos.
The program at Bowling Green State University will place less
emphasis on training of foreign students due to Dr. William B.
Jackson's retirement in December 1984. Some candidates for
advanced degrees visited DWRC during the year or conducted their
research under the guidance of DWRC biologists.
