4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Combination A or B (see note 1) Microbiology is the study of biological organisms and agents too small to see with the unaided eye. This course will introduce students to the diversity, physiology, anatomy, and genetics of microorganisms, with particular emphasis on the bacteria. It will also introduce students to key areas of microbiology, including medical microbiology, microbial ecology, food microbiology, and biotechnology. In the laboratory, students will learn techniques for medical microbiology and biotechnology.

4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Combination A or B (see note 1) A survey of the mechanisms involved in the function of the human body. Study is approached from the organ system level to address muscular, neural, hormonal, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, renal, and reproductive functions. Correlation will be made to the similarity between the demands placed on living systems regardless of whether the organism is multicellular or a single cell.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Combination A or B (see note 1) A microanatomical study of cell and tissue structure. Emphasis is on the complex nature of tissues and how the cellular associations within the tissue contribute to the overall functions of the tissues. Laboratory is devoted to preparation and interpretation of tissue samples.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Combination A or B (see note 1) The major emphasis of this course is the study of both basic and advanced genetic principles and genetic analysis methods that can be applied to all eukaryotic organisms. The secondary emphasis of this course will be the study of human medical genetics.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 1108, 1108L or BIOL 2108, 2108L The study of insects. This course is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of insect taxonomy, morphology, physiology, behavior, and evolution. The relationships between insects and humans, other animals, and plants will be examined. The infl uences of insects on culture, religion, art, history, and colonization will be discussed. The laboratory will be devoted primarily to developing an understanding of insect identifi cation. COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES 171

4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 1108, 1108L or BIOL 2108, 2108L This course is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of taxonomy, morphology, physiology, and evolution of the more common invertebrate phyla. The distribution and interspecifi c relationships among invertebrates and other forms of life will be presented and discussed. The laboratory will be devoted primarily to developing an understanding of invertebrate morphology and classifi cation.

4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 1108, 1108L or BIOL 2108, 2108L The biology, systematics, and taxonomy of fi shes with an emphasis on the biodiversity/biogeography of fi shes in the state of Georgia.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 3310 Microbial physiology is designed to illustrate that procaryotic organisms follow the same physiological rules and restrictions as eucaryotes. The course will illustrate the value of biophysical, biochemical, and thermodynamic principles to bacterial growth and function and will utilize mathematical formulae to illustrate the basic principles of microbial reproduction. Microbial physiology will utilize problem solving to strengthen the ability of students to design, conduct, and evaluate biological experiments and data.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 3310 or consent of instructor This course is designed to expose students to the importance of microorganisms in industry and in the environment. Laboratory exercises focus on microbial growth, interactions with environmental factors, and use in industrial applications such as food production and sewage treatment. Same as ENVS 4321.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 3310 or consent of instructor This course is designed to inform students of current developments in the areas of clinical and medical microbiology. The course will focus on mechanisms of pathogenesis and host defense. Discussion of new and emerging infectious agents will be addressed.
