BIO 381-1 - Advanced Topic: Population Ecology (1)

Wildlife conservation requires an understanding of biological and ecological processes influencing wildlife population dynamics, the human processes that directly and indirectly influence ecological processes, and the mechanisms by which we can achieve conservation through manipulation of both ecological and human processes. This course will introduce the population biological and ecological topics relevant to contemporary wildlife conservation while providing a historical context for the development of current approaches to wildlife management and conservation. This course is designed to provide students with a broad overview of specific topics relevant to wildlife conservation and opportunities to be involved in conservation in practice. Prerequisites: BIO 142 . (Will involve some upper-level math, so experience with Calculus and/or Statistics is preferred). MILDENSTEIN
