Ecology, in its broadest sense, is the study or organisms and their interaction with the biotic and abiotic environment. The study of these interactions can be at the organismal (individual plants / animals), population, community, or whole ecosystem levels. We offer theoretical and laboratory courses focusing on all levels of ecological study. Concordia’s Organismal and Ecology faculty have particular interests in the use of modern molecular techniques to address evolutionary and ecological questions. We study physiological regulation of individual growth and behaviour, behavioural and chemical ecology of individuals and the effects that these individual interactions have at the population level. We also study community and conservation ecology in plants, fungi, and animals. We use an interdisciplinary approach, stressing the importance of all levels of ecological study.
The Honours program provides students with theoretical, practical and hands‑on field training in preparation for graduate work in the ecological sciences or a career in the environmental sciences.
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
