Credits: 3 credits in Fall and Winter, 4 credits in Spring

Topics vary with instructor and term. May be repeated for degree credit if the topics are different.

Winter 2019, BIOL 195A-01: Special Topic: Fisheries Management (3). The course examines the scientific and social dimensions of fisheries management. There is a strong emphasis on fisheries ecology and management strategies, but the course does not assume any background in ecology and is suitable for both science and non-science majors. The course employs a case study approach throughout, and therefore students must be motivated and engaged to do a good bit of self-guided learning individually and working in small groups. It is most appropriate for juniors and seniors in this regard. (SC). Humston.
