Good introduction to environment and ecology

Review
This program was a very good introduction to environment and ecology. However, bare in mind that almost all lectures are based around issues in India. I did the course in summer of 2011 and spent 10 days attending lectures given by some of the field experts from India. The next 10 days were spent on a field trip where we were exposed to more practical learning. We also had the opportunity to publish a journal (last 10 days of the course) that was entirely delegated to the students of the course. Those last ten days of creating the journal magazine was very challenging but equally rewarding. Through the magazine, we had the opportunity to test our skills in writing, editing, creativity or photography. I'm not sure if the course structure has changed much but I would recommend the course to anyone who'd want to taster a course in environmental science. It's also a great way to meet people and travel around India.
