Description:

Ecology examines the relationship that living organisms have with their environment. During the course of your studies, much of your learning will occur while actively working on problems in class, during tutorials, and in the field or laboratory. You also have the opportunity to complete a two-term research project under the guidance of a faculty member, and will gain hands-on experience conducting research at a field school held off our main campus.


This program highlights collaboration team work, practical research opportunities, lab work, and study abroad opportunities
