과목 설명

Ecology is the study of relationships in the natural world, many of which are increasingly being altered by human activities. These disruptions modify the environment on a global scale, affecting populations and communities of plants, animals, and other organisms, and making Earth increasingly inhospitable for life, including for humans. Explore the natural world and humans' role within it, as both instigators and managers of global environmental change.

GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

ENVIRST/GEOG 139

Explores the global and local nature of environmental problems, including issues of climate change, food, energy, globalization, deforestation, biodiversity loss, resource access, environmental justice, and population. Considers how we should analyze and act on environmental problems as we confront the apparently daunting scale of such issues. What appear to be single global environmental issues are actually composed of many smaller, context-specific, and place-dependent problems or conflicts. Through an interdisciplinary and geographic perspective, these issues can be understood and addressed at the scale of our lived lives.

INTRODUCTORY ECOLOGY

BOTANY/ENVIRST/ZOOLOGY 260

The relationships of organisms and the environment. Population dynamics and community organization, human-environment relationships, action programs.

GENERAL ECOLOGY

BOTANY/F&WECOL/ZOOLOGY 460

Ecology of individual organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems, landscapes, and the biosphere. The interaction of organisms with each other and their physical environment. These relationships are studied, often in quantitative terms, in both field and laboratory settings.

FIELD ECOLOGY WORKSHOP

ENVIRST 375

Hands-on field study for intensive study of behavior of plants and animals and their relationship to environments and human impacts. Individual and group observations, measurements, interpretation, reports, typing personal experience with specifics to basic principles.

BIODIVERSITY AND GLOBAL CHANGE

ENTOM 490

Explores the impact of global environmental change on biodiversity and the subsequent consequences for ecosystem function and human well-being. Examines species response to these environmental changes, such as migration, adaptation, and extinction, and the implications for the delivery of ecosystem services and planetary health. Applies ecological principles to identify and evaluate practical solutions to pressing environmental challenges.
