***OPTION FOR: Advanced Version of Primate Behavior and Ecology
The course runs from ***12/27-1/18*** and will cover primate behavioral ecology, as well as applied experience conducting research with free-ranging howler monkeys. It is a combination of lectures, films, field training, and a group research project involving data collection and analyses.
For those students who have already taken primate behavior, there is the opportunity to take an advanced version of the course that involves the submission and approval of a research proposal. You would need to conduct a literature review and submit a proposal (including literature review, project outline, and proposed methods) to the instructor (Dr. Barbara Welker, welker@geneseo.edu) in advance of the course, in order to get her approval to take the advanced version. You would spend more time in the field collecting data, conduct data analyses under her supervision, and write a research report during/after the conclusion of the course.
You may apply for up to 3 cr hr of undergradute coursework for the course, through your university, if you so choose. |
