Conservation Ecology Program/Conservation Ecology Group (CEG), a research laboratory under King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT-Thailand), primarily studies ecology of threatened species, habitat management and wildlife conservation. The Conservation Ecology Program/Conservation Ecology Group (CEG) is a research laboratory under the School of Bioresources and Technology, King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), Thailand. CEG focuses primarily on the ecology of terrestrial vertebrates of Southeast Asia, publishing baseline data including population size and/or density estimation, impacts of human disturbance, foraging behavior, habitat selection, or broad-scale predictive mapping. The focal taxa include species that are data deficient and/or highly threatened such as galliformes, small mammalian carnivores, and primates. CEG is a diverse research team made up of staff and students from over 13 countries in Asia, Europe and North America, and we regularly collaborate with other institutions in Southeast Asia, the United Kingdom, the United States, Belgium, and Australia. CEG places great importance on training and offers a variety of courses/workshops for regional researchers and students, for instance, statistical modeling in ecology, field techniques for wildlife study, GIS for natural resources management. A limited number of graduate students are accepted per year with available scholarships. Our graduate program aims to prepare students for a career as researchers and/or managers of protected areas. Coursework lays the foundation for enabling students to conduct independent research for their planned thesis projects and future work after graduation.
