Introduction to Evolutionary Ecology and Biodiversity

Discover the immense variety of life and the evolutionary processes that have shaped it. This course introduces the principles of natural selection, speciation, and the systematic classification of organisms. For students in Zambia, a country blessed with iconic ecosystems like the Kafue and Luangwa basins, understanding biodiversity conservation is essential for future roles in environmental management and wildlife research. You will study population genetics and the impact of environmental changes on species survival.
