Integrated Marine Systems
ENS 372 (Offering: 2003)

Description

This course represents the final course in a sequence of four courses that comprise the Marine Science Strand of the Bachelor of Environmental Science degree program. It builds on the intellectual content and practical skills acquired during the preceding marine science courses of the program, and draws together a suite of marine issues in an integrative way. Integration of intellectual and practical skill is achieved through a structured sequence of problem definition, proposal formulation, project management and implementation, data collection and analysis and scientific interpretation of results. Students in this course are actively participating in a research project pitched at mirroring real-world studies in the coastal zone. A major emphasis of all work undertaken in this course is placed on acquiring skills in experimental design, critical reasoning, advanced methods of data analysis, and communication of results.

Major(s)/Minors(s): Biodiversity and Ecology (major), Marine Science (minor), Environmental Management (minor)
