The best class I ever took at UCSB. Keep in mind the material is fairly difficult and goes fast in the summer. But all of the experiences and class and lab reports are one of a kind. This is an easy take if you want to spend time outside engaging with several ecosystems and their various beachside life.

This class was the best I've taken at UCSB. Bob and Mark were awesome and I highly recommend this class! It is a lot of work though.

Favorite class by far at UCSB! Every lab is a day at the beach and the 4 day Santa Cruz Island trip is amazing. 3 Lab reports a midterm and final, the work isn't too much to handle for summer and it helps that the class is so much fun. Easily recommended to everyone! Also, the TA is amazing...and looks pretty good in short shorts.

This was a great class to take over the summer, really hands-on with everything you do in here! Every lab was a beach day, which was great. The TA was AWESOME, the professor was clear, the material was easily comprehended. Best of all the field trips were fun , educational and you really learn a lot. 3 lab reports, 1 midterm, 1 final :) not bad.

I absolutely loved this class!!! By far the best class I've taken at UCSB. Dr. Page is a cool guy and the TA was great! You take field trips, the big one is to Santa Cruz Island where you get to know your classmates, TA, and professor better! If you study hard and attend class/lab you'll do great!

Best Teacher I've had at UCSB. This class has some complicated material, but Mark and his wonderful TA's make it really fun and interesting to learn. The Lab is mostly on the beach, and its all hands on work. Several Field trips including 1 to Santa Cruz Island. Class was fantastic, but it is pretty difficult, expect to work hard!

SOOOOOOOO FUN. he only teaches EEMB170 during first session of summer. this class is definitely worth taking. not only is it easy, the material is very interesting, his lectures are very straight forward. there is also a trip to the channel islands! :D there are 3 research papers, 1 midterm, 1 final, & partner experiments. highly recommended!!!
