What will I learn?
This practical course teaches building and interpreting population models with simple maths tools. Learners make spreadsheet simulations, study exponential and logistic growth, and test cases like habitat loss, mortality shifts, and conservation efforts. Gain skills in sourcing data, estimating parameters, handling uncertainty, and presenting quantitative reports for decisions.
