ENV 2040 - Introduction to Environmental Restoration


Credit(s): 4

[LGNR7] This course introduces students to the theory and practical applications of environmental restoration. A diverse array of habitat restoration techniques are addressed, including artificial cavity nest construction for birds, vernal pool creation for amphibians, streambank restoration, invasive exotic species control, and reptile hibernacula formation. The vast majority of the course is spent in the field involving hands-on restoration activities in local habitats working in concert with area landowners. The course emphasizes restoration techniques that may be readily used in area high school and junior high school science programs.

Prerequisites: The prerequisite is SCI 1030. There is a course fee. This course is offered every summer and as needed.
