This course examines the studies that led to the identification of DNA as the genetic material of cells and the discovery of the enzymes that allow DNA manipulation for genetic engineering and fingerprinting, as well as the studies that have identified stem cells as pleuripotent entities that can develop into a myriad of cell types. Included are discussions regarding the ethical issues that have arisen from these studies and attempts to control this line of research through the political process.

3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIO 234 or permission of instructor Survey of the basic principles of human health and disease from an immunological perspective. The course is designed for students with little previous exposure to immunology or microbiology. Topics covered will include the organization of the immune system, evolution of the immune system, as well as the cellular and molecular mechanisms used by the immune system to protect humans from disease.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: Biology core; MTH 102 or MTH 111; CHM 151, 152, or permission of instructor The principles and practices of the scientific discipline of ecology. Interactions among organisms and between organisms and their environment will be emphasized. Interactions will be described and analyzed at the organismal, population, community, and ecosystem levels. In the laboratory, students will use hypothesis-testing and experimentation to examine theoretical and empirical aspects of ecology.

3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: Biology core
A description of reproductive and embryological principles.& The course describes the steps required for fertilization of an egg and organogenesis of male and female reproductive systems.& Lectures focus on early fetal development, the impact of genetic and environmental factors influencing early embryogenesis, and organogenesis of each major human organ system.& The laboratories involve the microscopic study of tissue histology to strengthen the understanding of tissue and organ function.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: Biology core The nature and diversity of microorganisms. Special emphasis is placed on bacterial cytology, nutrition, physiology, and growth. Topics on the significance of microorganisms in the environment and the evolutionary relationships of microorganisms are included.
-
3.00 Credits
Detailed study of the structure and function of the human body concentrating on the cardiovascular, immune, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems with an emphasis on clinical applications. Lectures coincide with BIO 222 but exams and assignments are separate. Independent laboratory projects allow students to research, design, and execute experiments in anatomy and physiology.
