The interdisciplinary coursework on this program focuses on the diverse terrestrial and marine ecosystems of the tropics and their conservation. Immersed in the ecosystems themselves, students study the biology and ecology of these fragile environments and examine the impact of human activity on the environment and the ways in which conservation practices can serve both human and environmental interests.
