ZOO 4300

This intensive two-week course is held in late July through early August although it must be recorded as part of your Fall course selection where tuition and compulsory fees apply. The course is held at the Huntsman Marine Science Centre, St. Andrews, New Brunswick. The ecology, behaviour, physiology, biochemistry, biomechanics of marine plants and animals will be studied as well as basic oceanographic techniques. Students will be able to familiarize themselves with the techniques and equipment involved in various branches of marine biology and oceanography. In addition to regular Fall tuition fees, students are responsible for the cost of transportation to St. Andrews, and for charges levied by the Huntsman Marine Science Centre for room and board, research facilities and ship time. A department application form must be submitted for approval before course selection. The signature of the course coordinator is required to select the course. Students taking this course DO NOT use course numbers reserved for the Ontario Universities Program in Field Biology. [Department(s): Department of Integrative Biology]
