Ecological assement and environmental remediation are important subdisciplines in the ever growing field of biotechnology that support a range of career opportunities. The Field Guide produced by the biotechnology students of High Tech High in San Diego demonstrates the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary approach to ecological assessment.

This work reveals the impact of integrating disciplines such as the humanities, mathematics and biotechnology. The Field Guide produced by the students of High Tech High has received praise from: biologists, conservationists, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the San Diego City Council and the Mayor of San Diego.
