1-3 credit(s) This academic course offers an intensive travel-study experience to a biological field station or region of special biological interest. The travel permits in-depth study of a unique biological system, going beyond what is possible in a classroom or in shorter field trips near the Siena campus. Lectures, supervised research into aspects of the course, and orientation meetings will prepare students for an informed travel experience. This course may be offered alone, or may require co-registration in a related Biology course. Topics, credits, and any co-registration requirements will be announced during pre-registration in the preceding semester. May only fulfill the requirement for upper-level electives in Biology when offered for 3 credits. Additional prerequisites may be added at the discretion of the instructor. May be taken more than once with different content. Travel costs paid by the student; cost varies each semester. Permission of Instructor required.
