- Objectives: This course will introduce
students to management practices used to achieve specific objectives using the fisheries,
forestry and wildlife resources. Through laboratory experiences, students will observe
examples of management and develop basic hands-on skills relative to measuring and
assessing these resources.
|
- Attendance:
We will not check attendance in lectures or labs, but regular
attendance is expected. Missing lectures and labs will lower your grade
in this class. Please let your lab instructor know as soon as possible
about any unavoidable absence from class. If you miss an exam, you are
responsible for arranging a make-up exam immediately after your return
to class.

- Grading:
Your grade
for this course will be based on three exams in lecture (75%) and an
overall laboratory score (25%). The lecture grade will consist of your
scores on three non-cumulative exams. Your lab grade will be based on
two exams (35 points each), two lab reports (10 points each), and weekly
lab quizzes (totaling 10 points). If you have questions regarding your
course average, contact Dr. Hansen, the course coordinator. Your lab
score is the responsibility of your lab instructor. Your final grade
for the course will be assigned based on the final percentage of total
points you earned: A = 93–100%; A– = 90–92%; B+ = 87–89%; B = 83–86%; B–
= 80–82%; C+ = 77–79%; C = 73–76%; C– = 70–72%; D+ = 67–69%; D = 60–66%;
F = 0–59%.
