ESC 302 - Conservation BiologyCredit Hour(s): 3
This course deals with principles of maintaining biological diversity in managed landscapes. Conservation biology investigates human impacts on biological diversity and loss and develops practical legislative and policy approaches to preventing extinction of species. Conservation biology has two underlying themes – seeking new approaches to sustainability and maintenance of biological diversity. This course will explore the theories and methods related to these themes; students will use a particular biodiversity “hotspot” to apply concepts related to biology, ecology, policy, and law to design an effective management plan for this hotspot. 3 Credit(s).
