Alternate Spring Semesters Spring 2009 Focuses on cells, the basic units of all organisms. Their structures and activities will be examined with special emphasis on their subcellular components and interactions with their environments. In the laboratory, students will employ some of the newest techniques used by researchers in the study of cells and their biology. Gaining familiarity with various experimental approaches, cell types, and types of instrumentation will be the main goals. Lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 1065 and CHEM 1010, or permission of instructor. Fee.

Alternate Spring Semesters Spring 2009 An exploration of the underlying process by which species arise and change through time. It will trace the development of the concept of evolution via natural selection and then explore the subtleties of selection which serve to fine-tune organisms to the environment. Students will learn the application of isoenzyme electrophoresis to evolutionary genetics. Prerequisite: BIOL 1065 or BIOL 2100, or permission of the instructor.

1.00 Credits
Fall and Spring Semesters Consists of supervised preparation, by the student, of a proposal for independent research. The student will be required to read/investigate previous literature in the field; gain understanding of the nature of the problem/question and methodology which will be used to investigate it; write up a research proposal which includes: 1) a survey of relevant background literature and information relating to the problem; 2) a rationale for investigating the problem; and 3) a research plan including methodologies which will be used. Signature of faculty supervisor and Department Chair required. Prerequisite: Permission of area instructor. May be done concurrently with BIOL 4010.
