MEFB 401 (01) - Marine Estuarine and Freshwater Biology: Freshmen Seminar

MEFB Freshmen Seminar

Credits: 1.0
Term: Fall 2024 - Full Term (08/26/2024 - 12/09/2024)
Grade Mode: Credit/Fail Grading
Class Size:   50  
CRN: 11120
Special Fees: $15.00
The purpose of this course is threefold: First to acquaint freshmen MEFB majors to the wide range of topics that are included in the broad area of marine, estuarine and freshwater biology. Second, to introduce new UNH students to many of the MEFB faculty at UNH and give them the opportunity to become aware of the types of research that is being conducted at UNH. Finally, to begin teaching freshmen how to read the primary literature, write concise summaries of papers they read, give oral presentations to their peers, and understand how scientific knowledge is acquired and disseminated. Students attend a series of seminars presented by a wide range of MEFB faculty. The topics presented vary from year to year depending on the faculty that agree to participate. In addition students are required to read the current literature, write short papers and give presentations to the class.
