BIO 6100 Conservation Biology

The core principles of conservation biology will be studied, starting with supporting and foundational studies, and ending with a review of its intersection with society.  Conservation biology, a “crisis discipline”, is unique in that its principles are applied in real time and in haste as a result of an environmental emergency.  However, the science spans every major scientific field, and is based on sound scientific theory.  Here, we will explore those theories and their application in real world scenarios.
