  • BIO 320: Urban Ecology

    5.00 Credits
    Oglethorpe University

    Urban areas are growing worldwide and negatively affecting natural and social resources. Effective management of these impacts requires the integration of natural and social science into a new discipline called urban ecology. This course describes the state of urban ecological knowledge and best management practices in urban planning using lecture, discussion, lab, regional field trips and guest speakers. This course is also cross listed as UEP 320. Prerequisite: COR 102 or permission of the instructor.
