ENR 1200Environment4
(3L, 3LB) This course fulfills a lab science requirement for both science and non-science majors by introducing key concepts in the life sciences through analysis of environmental and natural resource issues. It is appropriate for all students seeking a deeper understanding of environmental challenges. This course is intended to cultivate informed citizens capable of understanding both the scientific basis of environmental challenges as well as an appreciation for the importance of the non-scientific dimensions of those challenges. This course uses complex, real-world environmental challenges to explore fundamental scientific principles such as hypothesis testing, energy flow, nutrient cycling, ecosystem structure and function, population ecology, community ecology, and the role of humans in systems. 217
Introductory environmental geology course focusing on water and soil both as hazards and as life-sustaining resources; exploring surface processes and climate change over geological and human timescales. Case studies illustrate the environmental tradeoffs of resource use. Cross-listed: (Cross-listed with GEOL 1330 )
and Earth's Environment (4CR) (3L, 3LB) Introductory environmental geology course focusing on water and soil both as hazards and as life-sustaining resources; exploring surface processes and climate change over geological and human timescales. Case studies illustrate the environmental tradeoffs of resource use. Cross-listed: (Cross-listed with GEOL 1500)
and Society (3CR) (3L) This course explores environmental and social interactions-that is, how we relate to non-human nature and how we represent these relationships. During the semester you will evaluate texts and other media from a variety of fields. We will also address some of the core issues impacting the relationship between the environment and society.
This interdisciplinary course explores the intersection of environmental science and the humanities, providing a comprehensive understanding of human-environment interactions and a unique student learning experience. Students will gain 6 credits upon successful completion of both courses, which must be taken concurrently. The course integrates lectures, fieldwork, and lab-based learning, focusing on scenic quality assessments, plant and bird identification, citizen science tools, and contemporary environmental challenges. Emphasis is placed on data collection, analysis, scientific reporting and oral presentations, fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and personal responsibility in environmental stewardship.
Work Experience (1-8L)(1- 8CR) This course provides the opportunity to gain life science and/or wildlife management concepts from a vocational or employment experience within the student's area of specialization. A minimum of 80 hours of on-the-job training represents one semester credit hour. The instructor and the employer will supervise students. Prerequisites:
