Catalog Description : This course introduces the mechanisms of biological evolution that have resulted in earth’s rich diversity of life. We will explore the ways in which populations change, species interact, communities are structured and ecosystems function through an evolutionary lens. Connections to global crises related to human-driven processes, such as climate change, land use change, and disease spread will make these basic concepts germane to our lives, and underscore the interdependence of human and environmental health. A weekly laboratory will provide opportunities to practice field ecology research and run evolutionary lab experiments. Attributes: Cross-Listed Course, GER NS Lab Course, 100-199 Introductory Course
