Invasive species are one of the greatest global threats to biodiversity, ecosystem function, economies, and human health. Species become invasive when moved beyond native range, become established, and cause harm. This course covers how species are moved, how and when they become established, and potential harm they can cause.
Prerequisites: ENVS 280 or BIOL 265.
Outcomes: Understanding that because invasive species are moved by humans, and because many of their impacts are felt by humans, they are an inherently multi-disciplinary problem.
