3.00 Credits
This course is the second of a two-course sequence examining the structure and function of the human body and mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis within it. This portion includes the study of immunity; metabolism; energetics; fluid, electrolyte and acid-base balance; and the endocrine, hematologic, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Prerequisite: BIO 201. Co-requisite: BIO 202L.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is a study of the gross anatomy and functions of the endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, renal, and reproductive systems. The experiential lab involves an advanced exploration of concepts using human cadavers, animal demonstrations, and computer-assisted instruction. Prerequisite: One of the following: 1) none; or 2) BIO 201L. Co-requisite: BIO 202.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction to the principles and applications of microbiology and a study of the general characteristics of microorganisms, their activities, and their relationship to humans. Students develop understanding of microbial cell structure and function, microbial genetics, related pathologies, immunity, and other selected applied areas. Co-requisite: BIO 205L.
-
1.00 Credits
The laboratory section of BIO 205 supports further learning surrounding principles gained in the lecture course. Students develop fundamental skills in microbiological laboratory techniques, microscopy methodologies, and the isolation and identification of pathogenic microorganisms. Co-requisite: BIO 205.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the relevance and impact of scientific endeavors/advances/processes on human populations, society, and the environment. Natural phenomena and relationships between scientific disciplines and technology provide foundational knowledge for students to critically analyze the interactions between humans and their world.
-
3.00 Credits
The content of this course is designed to broaden the health care professional's knowledge of pharmacology. Topics include types and effects of drugs, including diagnostic imaging contrast media. The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of drugs commonly used in ancillary health care are presented. Conscious sedation, adverse reactions, and patient care under sedation are also included.
-
3.00 Credits
This writing-intensive course focuses on the use of scientific research as a basis for understanding and improving clinical practice. Topics include differentiation between various forms of written communication, utilizing former research to support a position and/or develop new research proposals, organizing and writing research papers, and producing visual aids for oral presentations. Emphasis in this course is on the critical review of research studies and their applications to clinical practice. An overview of evidence-based practice is provided. Prerequisite: HLT 312.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides a foundation of basic nutrition theory, with a focus on assessment, food components, exercise, nutrition, weight control, community programs, and resources. Application of these aspects is used to promote health and prevent illness.
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the normal function of human cells, tissues, and organ systems. Emphasis is placed on the interconnections and biochemical functions between systems of the body and maintenance of homeostasis. Minor emphasis is placed on the dysfunctions and resulting pathologies. Prerequisites: One of the following combinations: 1) BIO 182; or 2) BIO 181 and BIO 181L. Co-requisite: BIO 360L.
-
1.00 Credits
This course involves the exploration of normal function of human cells, tissues, and organ systems through hands-on laboratory experimentation. Students develop a deeper understanding of the materials learned in BIO 360 using simulation software for human functions, systems, and pathologies. Prerequisites: One of the following combinations: 1) BIO 182; or 2) BIO 181 and BIO 181L. Co-requisite: BIO 360.
