BIO2830 — SURI: Environmental II
Students will participate in environmental research that pertains to their area of interest and/or as requested by local environmental organizations. As part of this experience, students will read, interpret, and present published scientific research papers. Students will be responsible for experimental design, maintaining a laboratory journal, and acquiring the necessary laboratory and field research skills to complete their research and present their results. Students are divided into either Environmental I or Environmental II, depending on their level of experience, but are blended together in a single course. Environmental II students are expected to function like an advanced student. In addition to Environmental I expectations, they are also expected to understand and communicate how the papers they present fit into the underlying science. Prerequisite: ENG 1510, BIO 1570, and BIO 1550 or BIO 1580 or BIO 1830 or BIO 1551 + BIO 1552 or BIO 2650 or BIO 2660 or BIO 2670. J summer.
