Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
A written exam is held at the end of the semester consisting of multiple-choice (single-choice) and true/false questions as well as several written questions (short answers sufficient and preferred). Additional exams will be held the following summer semester.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
This course is designed to give students an introduction into the issues of nature conservation and species protection. An important aspect is to distinguish between what is on paper and what the situation is on site. Students get an insight into what they can expect when they volunteer for nature conservation work or focus their studies on nature conservation. They will also receive the background framework for such work, emphasizing that legal regulations and international agreements are in place (at least in principle) to justify and enable species protection and nature conservation measures.
Examination topics
The exam lectures are based on the lectures themselves and on the Moodle (pdf) versions of the powerpoint presentations (or the downloads made available). Guest lectures may or may not be available on Moodle but a related question can be part of the exam.
Reading list
The literature for the marine part (sea turtles, cetaceans, coral reefs, "general") of this class (ca. 50 references) will be put on Moodle at the beginning of the semester.

Nadja Ziegler and I (Michael Stachowitsch) will be holding our lectures in person this coming semester ("Präsenzlehre") until and unless new unversity virus regulations come into force. Note that we are in HS 1 from 5-19 October, thereafter we move to HS 3 for the remaining semester.
Michael Stachowitsch will be placing his PowerPoint lectures on Moodle as pdfs, Nadja Ziegler will either use Moodle or enable students to download her lectures after class.
The lecturers will make an effort to inform students about current and future projects around the world and specialist courses held elsewhere.
