Conservation Biology

instructor showing students a birdConservation Biology (BIOSC 1610)

To protect and conserve the diversity of plants and animals in nature, we need to understand how to integrate ecology, management, and public policy. A variety of activities will be used (e.g., mark-recapture experiments, camera-trapping, multi-taxa censuses, and/or field trips) to offer hands-on demonstrations of conservation principles.
