Translational ecology analyses ecosystems in a manner that leads to better policies, decision-making, and action. It is where environmental sciences meet environmental policy and governance. Translational ecology further embraces how the arts, media, and culture can act upon what emerges from analysis of socioecological systems. ERS 401 will focus student efforts on action-based and innovative modules and projects that provide a path to students designing their short- and long-term careers.

  • I really enjoyed this course. The content was interesting and really useful, and the assignments were a lot of fun. Smurph's approach to the assignments was basically 'pick what you're interested in and do something creative with it', which was awesome.
