Professor Jordan teaches Principles of Biology (BIOL 101), Biology II: Ecology and Evolution (BIOL 162/172), and Ecology (BIOL 470).

Professor Jordan's research and teaching are motivated by a desire to use the tools of wildlife biology and conservation genetics to restore degraded landscapes. He and his students use a mix of field, molecular, and quantitative methods to help conservation organizations and resource managers address critical conservation questions. His current research includes noninvasive monitoring of carnivore populations and an analysis of genetic connectivity of fishers in Vermont.
