On January 21, 2012 the Board of Trustees of the University of Puerto Rico created the Department of Environmental Science (where most of the IGERT students are) by merging the then existing Environmental Sciences Program and the Institute of Tropical Ecosystem Studies. The new Department includes 14 professors, extensive research facilities and total external funding of over $30 million.
