What is the cluster?
The Human and Animal Interactions GEC Cluster was created to give you an
opportunity to explore the roles animals play in society and the impact
of human and animal relationships while providing a forum to share your
view with others in an accepting environment where discussion is
encouraged and desired.
The GEC Cluster is a series of three innovative
courses that utilize multiple disciplines and techniques to allow you to
learn and understand the impact of human and animal interactions in a
well-rounded manner.
Taken together, these courses will allow you to
study this topic on a deeper level while possibly satisfying some of
your GEC requirements.
You’ll learn about human and animal interactions, how globalization
affects animal species, how geography and culture impact the roles
animals play in society, the domestication process and much more. You’ll
get to take field trips and may even get to go on a study abroad trip to
Europe to witness these things first hand.
We’ve even brought in experts to teach a class from Australia who are on
the fore-front of understanding animal welfare and human and animal
interactions.
We invite you to join us in this exploration by checking out the courses
listed above!
