What happens when you give undergraduates the tools to solve Florida's most complex conservation challenges? They take over the Undergraduate Research Symposium.
This week, our WildFL cohort traded their field gear and GIS workstations for the symposium floor. They didn't just present posters—they pitched real-world data and solutions for Florida’s wildlife corridors to a room full of peers and experts.
The standout moment? Seeing students explain how their team worked with the various tools in the course: geospatial data, camera trapping, AI RAGs and LLMs, stakeholder engagement, and county planning to protect landscape connectivity.
This isn't just "student work." It’s professional-grade science communication designed to bridge the gap between data and policy. A huge congratulations to these Undergraduate Research Scholars from the Center for Landscape Conservation Planning (CLCP) for showing us that the future of conservation is in very capable hands.
