Conservation Bioacoustics Field Course Preparation

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024. Courses of Study 2023-2024 is scheduled to publish mid-June.

This course will focus on preparing students for the winter term Hawai'i field course. Specifically, we will learn about Hawai'ian ecosystems, culture, and conservation needs, and ideate potential bioacoustic project ideas related to these topics. Students will also learn about field techniques and data management practices that will be essential during our field course. This course will include lectures from Yang Center instructors and our local collaborators, discussion of relevant literature, and group work to develop project ideas and create plans for data collection.
