The word Ecology comes from the Greek word ‘oikos’, meaning home, and ‘ology’ denoting a science. Literally, the science of home. However, we can be a little more precise than that, and define it as ‘the scientific study of the relationships of organisms, communities, the places in which they live, and how they interact.’ This course provides an introduction to the principles and disciplines involved leading on to the concept of ‘green’ policies, and pointing the way forward with opportunities for positive involvement.
No practical training is required to complete this course.
You do not need to have any additional qualifications before studying this course.
On successful completion of this course you will have studied new skills and gained knowledge purely for your own enjoyment and development. This may also act as a ‘taster’ for the student who wishes to go on to more advanced courses.
On successful completion students will receive the following award: The BSY Certificate of Competence in Introductory Ecology.
Upon enrolment you receive your first course lessons.
You can study in your own time, at your own pace and from the comfort of your own home. If you have any questions, or would like feedback or encouragement about your course or your studies then you can contact our friendly tutors by phone, email or post.
At the end of each lesson are a set of questions. Completing these can aid your learning and help you master each step before moving on to the next.
