BIO 264 Conservation Biology

Conservation Biology is an applied discipline that uses processes/theories developed in ecology for a single normative end: “preserving biological diversity”. This course will explore a Christian framework for valuing nature and the tools/techniques used to monitor and preserve biodiversity. Students will engage in substantive debates and case studies designed to provide them with an informed perspective on both the science and normative underpinnings of the discipline.
