Agnes Kovacs is the Senior Manager of Graduate Programs at Brookfield Zoo Chicago. Agnes has decades of educational experience, with her students ranging in age from elementary school groups, to teacher workshops, to graduate learners. As Project Dragonfly and Brookfield Zoo Chicago approach the fifteenth anniversary of the Advanced Inquiry Program, Agnes and Kevin discuss the uniqueness and flexibility of this degree, the guest speakers and field trips she facilitates for her classes, the value of urban rooftop gardens for insect biodiversity, and the real-world impact of students' master plans on conservation and sustainability both locally and globally.
