ENV 5555 - Conservation Near & Far

Institution:

University of Utah

Subject:

Description:

This course will engage students in real-world challenges and possibilities for species conservation through a 'think globally, act locally' approach. Students will learn from conservation stakeholders working on-the-ground in an international context while themselves conducting community engaged learning projects with local conservation organizations. Alongside this hands-on exposure to conservation work, students will learn to read, critically analyze and lead classmates in discussion about scientific articles on conservation and land management. Students will also gain skills for learning through collaboration and relationship-building, in part by taking a multi-day field trip to the University's Bonderman Field Station at Rio Mesa.
