    Overview

    Wildlife Ecology Research is an intensive two week pre-college program for rising 9th-12th graders where students learn ecology through hands-on research. Ecologists introduce students to ecological topics using a diverse array of wildlife and research techniques.  

    Wildlife Ecology Research culminates in rigorous small-group research projects where students develop and implement research projects from hypothesis to final paper. This program aims to provide a significant academic experience that will help students prepare for courses and research experiences at the college level while letting them explore career options in the natural sciences.
