This 30-credit certificate offers foundational training in ecology, introducing the biological concepts needed to understand ecosystem dynamics. Coursework covers population and community ecology, animal and plant biology, and field-based methods; several courses involve fieldwork outside the university that may carry additional transport, lodging, and living costs. The program is offered full-time or part-time, with admission in the fall and winter terms. It suits students with an interest in ecology and the environment who want a structured introduction to the discipline, whether as a standalone credential, a complement to prior science study, or a step toward further studies in biology or environmental science. Admission does not require a science background, though applicants must show a genuine interest in the field through relevant coursework, employment, or a letter of motivation.
