Winter and Spring 2019
What is it? A 2-quarter field course focused on a single research project.
Why should I take it? Past students have said:
“There is no other course on campus that promotes such a high level of independent thinking as well as cooperative work. By far, one of the best and most unique courses available at UC Davis.”
“Let me be clear. I have learned more, developed more as an ecologist, and experienced more valuable lessons in the past 6 months than in the entirety of the past 3 years. This class is how college is meant to be taught!”
“Probably the best course I have taken at Davis. I learned so much; even though it is a lot of work, truly the best way to learn is through hands on experience, which this class definitely provided!”
“EVE 180 is such a great class. It has really influenced the way I view experiments and the scientific method. The stuff I learned in this class will help me in grad school and beyond. Favorite class I’ve ever taken for sure.”
“The hands on approach of this course has been vital to understanding the process of science. After this course, I feel I really know what I am in for in my future career.”
What else do I need to know? The prerequisites are incorrect on Schedule Builder. The correct prerequisites are: EVE 100 + (ENT 105 or ESP 100 or EVE 101). Due to the unusual nature of this course, all prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact the instructor (Louie H. Yang, lhyang@ucdavis.edu).
