Island Biology and Experimental Design

BIOL 328

BIOL 328 (Island Biology and Experimental Design) is a course offered in the spring semester that includes a mandatory spring break research trip to an uninhabited island in the Bahamas. While on the island, we will explore its lush biodiversity and students will have the opportunity to execute their own research experiments.

We will also meet on campus for weekly discussions before and after the research trip. This course is best suited for students who want to gain research experience, as the main focus revolves around developing and executing your own experiment.

Note: It is not possible to register for this course via CNULive. Instead, you must first complete an application. Feel free to contact Dr. Lauren Ruane (Lauren.Ruane@cnu.edu or Forbes 1016) with any questions.

Pre-requisite is BIOL 213 and 213L with C or higher.
