  • BIO 274: Conservation Biology

    4.00 Credits
    Long Island University-C W Post Campus

    This course will provide biology and environmental science students with an overview of the rapidly growing field of conservation biology. We will focus on biological processes of relevance to conservation at the species, population and community levels, including evolution, population genetics, and ecology. The major threats to global biodiversity will be examined, as well as various actions that have been taken to slow its loss. We will also introduce management issues such as sustainable development, reserve design and conservation law enforcement. Laboratory sessions will utilize materials available through the American Museum of Natural History's Center for Biodiversity and Conservation program for Conservation Educators, including problem-solving exercises, debates, and web-based interactive exercises. Students will work in small groups on these assignments, and present their results to the class. In addition, students will read articles from the primary literature and lead discussions of these papers, answering questions designed to extract the main points from each. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.

  • BIO 280: Tropical Field Studies

    3.00 - 4.00 Credits
    Long Island University-C W Post Campus

    This course is designed to provide students interested in tropical environments with brief but intense experience in a variety of terrestrial, arboreal, and aquatic habitats. The focus of this course will be on project-oriented field studies (observational and experimental) that incorporate and emphasize the scientific method. Student projects will address issues of interest in ecology and tropical biology. These projects may involve 1) the entire class, 2) small groups of students, 3) individuals. Another important component of this course will involve learning about the indigenous people of region studied (e.g., ethnobotany). Length of course varies based on location. This course has special travel fees. Prerequisite of one 100-level Biology course or permission of instructor is required.
