ENV 102 Alpine Ecology

This course will introduce students to the functioning and the ecology of the various environments found in the Swiss Alps. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the course will also explore the economic, political, and social aspects of the Swiss Alps. There will be several off-campus excursions to local points of interests including the lakes of Ritom and Cadagno in Val Piora, the river Brenno, and an alpine glacier.
