Description:

(Prereq: Grade of C or better in BIOL A335 or A370) This course is designed to introduce students to the ways in which principles of the natural sciences and social issues are synthesized into conservation biology. During the course we will discuss how conservation biology can be used to conserve and protect biological diversity. The focus will be primarily on the biological issues, within the context of social, legal, or political considerations through which conservation programs are implemented. The intent of this course is to demonstrate how the tools of natural scientists like biologists, ecologists, and systematists can be applied to the solution of some practical problems in conservation biology.
