An enjoyable and hands-on geography class that will let you visit many field sites in California with departmental support (all costs covered)!! We had two overnight and one-day trips, fun and packed with knowledge of Californian vegetation. I have gained so much appreciation for the topic that I barely had a chance to learn. Apart from mandatory field trips, we had another quarter-long project researching a particular species and the impacts of climate change. The group project consists of a presentation and a report. All the data from field collection also needed to be revised and calculated as a final group fieldwork report. I highly recommend that geography students apply for this class during the summer, which will consist of answering two short essay questions, a resume, and a transcript. As a geography student, I found it valuable to have direct fieldwork experience, especially for those interested in vegetation and environmental science.
