NOTE: remember to select the correct term (Winter Term 1 or Winter Term 2) in WDS when looking for a course; sessions (Winter Session) won't work in the new system.
Single Credit Modules (BIOL 548s)
Zoology usually offers a number of 1 credit graduate modules per year. Course selection and descriptions may change year to year.
Recommended/Relevant Courses
These courses may not be offered every year. Please check the course schedule and/or the department that offers it to see if it will be offered in an upcoming session.
BIOL 501 Quantitative Methods in Ecology and Evolution covers data analysis and study design concepts as well as workshops on the R scripting language. It is recommended for all Zoology students.
Other relevant three credit courses include BIOL 530 Cell Biology and BIOL 509 Population Genetics.
