A consideration of the principles and methodologies of evolutionary thought, and a reconstruction of the history of life. Through an understanding of micro-and macroevolutionary mechanisms, students will analyze the diversification of earth's biota and the influence of current ecological conditions on possible future trajectories. Labs emphasize comparative biology through morphological and computer-based phylogenetic analyses. This course is a major requirement for Biology Majors (B.S.) in the School of Environmental and Sustainability Sciences who are in the Environmental Biology track (3hrs lecture, 3hrs lab).
