RNR 240 Principles of Ecotourism

In RNR 240, we examine the principles of ecotourism and how they can be used as to conserve and manage natural and human resources in a sustainable and financially viable way. We will review ecological impacts on the environment from tourism activities and learn how these are often managed as we examine numerous case studies throughout the world. We will conclude the course by studying established models used to deal with too many tourists at popular destinations. RNR 240 is open to students in all majors.
