Outcomes
  • To develop your awareness of, and curiosity about, the diversity of natural history and the exciting puzzles raised by the behavior of living things.
  • To gain mastery at asking and answering questions about the mechanisms and evolution of behavior by performing observations, generating hypotheses, deriving predictions, and developing tests to investigate the causes of behavior.
