Use basic conceptual and analytical tools to describe complex relationships within the tree of life.
Become familiar with a number of experimental and synthetic approaches to analyzing and discovering evolutionary processes (microevolution) and establishing evolutionary patterns (macroevolution).
Write and discuss knowledgeably about the dimensions of evolutionary issues that require decisions in our society.
