Field Courses
EEB offers one to two field courses each year to locations such as the New World tropics, Algonquin Park, and U of T’s Koffler Scientific Reserve (north of Toronto).
COVID-19 Update
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the department will not be offering field courses for Summer 2021.
We also participate in the Ontario Universities Program in Field Biology (OUPFB) which allows U of T students to take field courses offered by other universities in Ontario without having to apply for transfer credit.
