This course offers a small group of students the unique opportunity to study ecology, evolution, animal behavior, and conservation biology in one of the world’s most biologically spectacular settings, the wildlife-rich savannas at the base of Mt. Kenya.  


Students spend their time in Kenya immersed in an intensive field experience. In addition to gaining sophisticated training in fieldwork and biological research, the course gives participants many opportunities to observe and study organisms ranging from acacia ants to giraffes, go-away-birds to leopards.
