3.00 - 5.00 Credits
Full- or part-time employment or volunteer work with an agency, institution, professional group or individual involved in activities consistent with the student's educational and professional goals. The extent of internship activities shall be commensurate with the credits undertaken. A resident faculty member must serve as the student's academic sponsor. A study plan outlining the internship's educational goals must be completed prior to its commencement. Fall and Spring. Prerequisite: Permission of an academic sponsor from the environmental and forest biology department.
-
4.00 Credits
Three hours of lecture per week, two hours of laboratory per week and one weekend field trip. Introduction to marine organisms and systems using the principles of population, community and ecosystem ecology. Hands-on demonstrations, discussions, presentations, lectures, and field trip allow study of major marine habitats (e.g., intertidal, pelagic, coral reefs, deep sea), and the increasing human impact on marine environments. Small fee charged for mandatory weekend field trip. Spring, even years. Prerequisites: One year general biology and general ecology or equivalents. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 423 and EFB 623.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. Advances in the fields of plant physiology, genetics, and cell and molecular biology are integrated into a dynamic study of plant structure and development. Topics include fertilization, embryogenesis, gene expression and manipulation, and hormonal and environmental regulation of development. Fall. Prerequisite: EFB 226. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 427 and EFB 627.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of combined lecture/discussion and 3 hours of laboratory per week. Introduction to mycorrhizal symbioses, their role in plant nutrient uptake, and function in plant community dynamics. Emphasis is on important historical and current literature, and on learning methodological approaches used in mycorrhizal research. Fall, even years. Prerequisites: General ecology or plant ecology, genetics. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 428 and EFB 628.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours of lecture/discussion per week on theoretical and applied aspects of forest health monitoring including concepts, data acquisition, analysis, quality assurance, interpretation and reporting. Spring. Pre- or co-requisite(s): Courses in forest resources management, ecology, pathology and entomology.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. Fundamentals of the morphology, taxonomy, life histories, ecology and symbiotic relationships of fungi. Fall. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 440 and EFB 640.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. History of plant virology, identification and characterization of plant viruses, including transmission mechanisms, vector relationships, purification and serology. Laboratory will present techniques for the identification and characterization of plant viruses. Spring, even years. Prerequisite: EFB 303 or permission of instructor. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 443 and EFB 643.
-
3.00 Credits
Three hours of lecture per week. Earth history (plate tectonics, etc.), topography and geographic variation in environmental conditions influence species and communities. Major geographic patterns in biological diversity and strategies for conserving native species are presented. Fall, even years. Prerequisite: EFB 320 or permission of instructor. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 444 and EFB 644.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of lecture and discussion and one laboratory session per week. A first course in plant community ecology dealing with the dynamics of community development and change, and the process of community analysis and description. Spring. Prerequisite: EFB 320. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 445 and EFB 645.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of lecture and one three-hour laboratory or field trip per week. A study of taxonomic diversity, ecological adaptations and the roles of bryophytes in ecosystems. Spring. Note: Credit will not be granted for both EFB 446 and EFB 646.
