SOLOMON ISLANDS FIELD COURSE |
This is a three-week course on island ecology, evolution and conservation. Through lectures, field observations and experiments, students will learn the basic principles of island ecology, evolution and conservation. In addition, students will participate in community outreach programs (i.e., grass roots conservation) and on-site field research. This course was first taught in 2009 (Syracuse University), and it will be taught again in the Summer of 2013 (Summer Session I at the University of Miami). |
