Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Minor
The Ecology and Evolutionary Biology minor provides students with the opportunity to gain knowledge and skills in ecological and evolutionary sciences and organismal biology. Our objective is to prepare Tulane graduates to be environmentally aware citizens with knowledge of global environmental challenges and their connections to cultural, social, and economic factors. Students pursuing this minor cannot also complete the minor in Marine Biology.
