The School of Biological Sciences at Georgia Tech has strong undergraduate and graduate programs in Biology. I contribute to these programs by teaching core courses in Genetics, Behavior, and Ethics. I am also the Director of the Pacific Program, which is a spring semester study abroad program that takes place in New Zealand and Australia.
The Pacific Program in New Zealand and Australia
The Pacific Program is a 12-week long Georgia Tech faculty-led study abroad program that takes place during the spring semester. The program spends the first 6 weeks in New Zealand and the remaining 6 weeks in various parts of Australia. This once in a lifetime adventure allows students to experience unique cultures, visit incredible landscapes, and experience amazing ecosystems while earning 12 class credits. Students interested in the Pacific Programs should visit the official website at pacific.gatech.edu.
Genetics (BIOS 2600)
Genetics focuses on understanding heredity and variation in biological systems. Genetics has a fundamental role in the study of life and in human affairs.

Bioethics (BIOS 4651)
Bioethics examines the process of science and the ethical implications of biological research. Bioethics plays an increasingly important role in our understanding of the importance and effects of biology in society.
Behavioral Biology (BIOS 4471)
Behavioral biology is an introduction to the study of the principles of behavior of all kinds of organisms, from microbes to mammals. We examine basic principles derived from evolution, ecology, ethology, and development, and use these principles to explain how and why organisms behave as they do.
