Program Dates: June 28, 2020 – July 11, 2020

In partnership with LMU’s Center for Urban Resilience (CURes), this interdisciplinary course will explore how biology, chemistry, physics, and engineering intersect to inform urban ecologists on the threats that face the environment. Through a series of lectures and hands-on lab work in the adjacent Ballona Wetlands, students will have a unique opportunity to put on their urban ecology lab coat, examine the interactions between natural and social systems, and learn how they can create positive change around the environmental challenges facing their local communities.
