-
3.00 Credits
This course examines the anatomy of vertebrate animals with an emphasis on human structure and interesting anatomy concepts from the comparative study of vertebrate animals. Three lecture and three laboratory hours per week. Prerequisites: BIOL 111, 112, 131, 132. Credit, 4 hours. Offered fall and spring semesters.
-
3.00 Credits
In this course physiological actions of the body are examined. The physiology of metabolism, neural and hormonal control, and body organs and systems are studied. Three lecture and three laboratory hours per week. Prerequisites: BIOL 111, 112, 131, 132. CHEM 242 and 211 are strongly recommended. Credit, 4 hours. Offered fall and spring semesters.

-
3.00 Credits
Relationships of organisms to their environment. Topics will include the relationships of the physical environment, including climate, to animal and plant distribution; energy relationships; the niche concept; physiological ecology; community and population structure; succession; interactions of populations and maintenance of population size; and biogeography. Prerequisites: BIOL 245, MATH 132 or higher. Three lecture and three laboratory hours per week. Credit, 4 hours. Offered fall semester.
-
3.00 Credits
This course allows students, under the direction of one or more faculty members, to pursue an in- depth investigation of some topic that is not part of the existing biology curriculum. The topic may be a continuation of one covered in another class or one that is not part of any course. Meeting times, activities, and credit will depend on the topic covered. Credit, variable. Prerequisites: permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
It is suggested that this seminar be completed during the second semester of the junior year or the first semester of the senior year. Senior Seminar consists of three parts: 1) a seminar which meets one a week to discuss current developments in the Biological Sciences, 2) preparation of a major review of the scientific literature relevant to a specific topic, and 3) an oral presentation of the results of the survey. Prerequisites: must be a junior or senior biology major and have the permission of the instructor. Credit, 1 hour. Offered fall and spring semesters.
