| BIOL2009 Intro to Terrestrial Field Ecology |
6 | A (BIOL1002 or BIOL1902) and 12 credit points of Intermediate Biology P 12cp Junior BIOL or (6cp Junior BIOL and (MBLG1001 or MBLG1901)) N BIOL2909 or BIOL3009 or BIOL3909 Note: Department permission required for enrolment This unit cannot be combined with more than one other BIOL field unit during the degree. Departmental permission is required for entry into this unit of study. Entry into the unit is based on placement availability and selection is competitive based on academic performance in the pre-requisite units of study. Academic performance in any intermediate BIOL units of study may also be considered. The unit is only available in EVEN years (2014, 2016), but students may apply for entry into an alternative intermediate field unit in ODD years. |
