BIOL 1510♦Environmental Science I4

Environmental Science I is a one-semester, laboratory science study of environmental issues at local, national, and global levels designed for students interested in the humanities. This course introduces scientific principles, concepts, and methodologies required to understand interrelationships within nature and to identify and analyze environmental problems that are both natural and human made. Scientific approaches in ecological principles, geophysical processes, and human population dynamics are applied using hands-on laboratory and field experiences. Field experiences will be conducted each week at local city and state parks as well as other natural locations of interest. Students will need the physical ability to walk 1-4 miles of easy to moderate trail and may need transportation to the trail. Students will be encouraged to interpret the science by experiencing nature and through poems, essays, songs, and art introduced as part of the coursework.
