Natural Science and the Environment We will explore in detail a series of current environmental issues in order to learn how principles of biology, chemistry, geology, and physics, as well as interdisciplinary scientific approaches, help us to identify and understand challenges to environmental sustainability. In lecture, we will examine global environmental issues, including climate change, water and energy resources, biodiversity and ecosystem services, human population growth, and world food production, as well as the application of science in forging effective, sustainable solutions. In the laboratory and field, we will explore local manifestations of global issues via experiential and hands-on approaches.

Monica is a great lab professor and I learned so much from her. Her office hours were helpful but labs were pretty straightforward and interesting. I learned way more from the labs than I did from the lectures with Prof. Ryan. I wish Monica taught more classes here!
