About the course
This program provides a solid foundation in the principles of ecology, training in both pure and applied aspects of ecology and an introduction to economic, legal and policy issues related to the management of the environment. From the 2nd year on, students increasingly augment the core in ecology and policy with extensive restricted electives choices that allow the student to tailor the program to their interests. The major provides a sound science background for careers in conservation, resource management, ecological consulting, or nature interpretation used in teaching, government, non-government or the private sector, or for further post-graduate training in fundamental ecology, environmental biology and environmental management or policy.
Ecology combines the best of many worlds: including geology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, to better understand the relationships organisms have with their environments, as well as how humans can optimize these connections. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
