IES 4010

The course links and integrates the practical and theoretical learning of the previous seven semesters of the program. Students will be required to apply their understanding of Indigenous Knowledge and western science to situations in which both perspectives need to be considered and braided together to generate sound and appropriate solutions. Students will complete group projects engaging with Indigenous communities. The selected projects will examine the relationships between the practice of Indigenous environmental science and the larger ecological and cultural networks in which it is embedded. The course incorporates a field component that occurs during reading week.[Restriction(s): Restricted to students in BIESP, BIESP:C.][Department(s): School of Environmental Sciences]
