-
4.00 Credits
Available: fall, spring 4 Cr. Hrs This course is designed for non-science majors. It will consider scientific principles and their influence on environmental problems in today's society. The role of humans and our impact on these issues will be emphasized. Past, present, and future trends will be evaluated along with the possible impacts of these trends on the local and global populace. This course meets for an equivalent of 5 contact hours per week with a minimum of 2 contact hours devoted to laboratory/investigative activities.
-
4.00 Credits
Available: fall, spring 4 Cr. Hrs This is a one-term introduction to the structure and function of the human body. All systems of the body are studied. The course is required for technical health career programs, such as Allied Health, Dental Assisting, EMT, Medical Assisting, Practical Nursing, Radiologic Technology, and Surgical Technology. Corequisite: BIOL 127L
-
4.00 Credits
Available: fall, spring, summer 4 Cr. Hrs This number is applied to any of the life science areas and is indicative of a workshop course that may not transfer to another institution.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits

-
1.00 Credits
Available: fall, spring, summer 4 Cr. Hrs This is an introductory biology course for science majors. It will emphasize biological principles important in understanding living organisms to include: evolution, general biochemistry, cytology, Mendelian and molecular genetics, and ecology. Students who believe they may be eligible for advance placement status in courses listing BIOL 201 as a prerequisite should see the Biology Department chairman. Corequisite: BIOL 201L.
-
2.00 Credits
Available: fall, spring 4 Cr. Hrs This course is designed for science majors and provides an overview of evolution, the diversity of life, and the fundamentals of organismal structure and function. All domains and kingdoms of life are included with the primary focus on plants and animals.

-
4.00 Credits
Available: spring 4 Cr. Hrs Cell Biology is a study of biological principles with emphasis upon molecular cell biology; membranes, organelles, energy transfers, cell physiology, and molecular genetics. This course is for science majors. Prerequisites: CHEM 102 or CHEM 111 and BIOL 201 or BIOL 250. Corequisite: BIOL 204L
-
4.00 Credits
Available: fall 4 Cr. Hrs This course is designed for science majors. The discipline of ecology addresses the interactions of organisms with other organisms as well as the abiotic environment. It is inherently broad in scope encompassing everything from microorganisms to the entire biosphere. This course will cover the major concepts and techniques of ecology as well as applications of these concepts to current issues. The goal is to provide the tools and knowledge of concepts necessary for those entering careers in ecological fields. Prerequisite: BIOL 201 and 202.
-
3.00 Credits
Available: spring 3 Cr. Hrs This course surveys regional environmental issues; introduces students to the concepts of environmental science; investigates the human relationship to nature through environmental literature; and explores how both scientific and imaginative thinking can clarify what is at stake in regional environmental issues. In addition to class time, four required field trips are day trips around southern Idaho and northern Utah. The Final field study is a 3 day trip to study the greater Yellowstone ecosystem and the reintroduction of the wolf and grizzly. Prerequisite: ENGL 101 plus BIOL 100, or BIOL 120, or BIOL 201 or instructor permission.
