Stone Lab classes, as part of the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences, provide students with a hands-on outdoor science experience in areas such as amphibians, birds, fish, local plants, and foundational knowledge about numerous Lake Erie ecosystems.
Introductory courses are open to advanced high school students – sophomores, juniors, and seniors who have already taken biology – as well as to college undergraduates in any major, while the wide-variety of advanced level courses are ideal for science majors looking for practical experience in their chosen field.
“The value of a Stone Lab education is immeasurable, and that’s why we are dedicated to providing scholarships to as many students as we can,” said Ohio Sea Grant and Stone Laboratory director Dr. Chris Winslow.
