To be familiar with the application of ecology as an environmental management tool. To explore a focus in ecology or a related field with a strong ecological application.

A minor must contain at least 9 hours of upper division course work.
Courses taken to satisfy Core Areas I through V may not be counted as course work in the minor.
Courses taken in Core Area VI may be counted as course work in the minor.
All courses used to satisfy the minor must be passed with a grade of "C"(2.0) or better.
Up to 4 hours of research can be counted as course work in the minor.
