Animal Behavior

Catalog description

Fall 3 Credit Hours Over the course of the semester, we will explore the broad field of animal behavior, in a quest to understand both how and why animals do the things that they do. We will look at both proximate and ultimate explanations of behavior, and a major focus of this course will be on the variety of lab and field research that has led to our current understanding of behavior from a genetic to a population level of analysis. Prerequisites: PSY 0100 with a minimum grade of ‘C’ and any Biology course
