4.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to basic concepts of descriptive and inferential statistics, experimental design, and an exploration of chronic and infectious disease epidemiology. Students explore study and sampling designs by reviewing the steps of experiment design. Statistical methodologies include graphing, probability theory, estimation, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, correlation and regression, and analysis of variance. One-, two-, and multi-group parametric and nonparametric methods are introduced, requiring use of Z, t, F, and Chi-squared distributions. Epidemiology techniques include basic measures of disease frequency, exposure-disease associations, prevalence, and incidence relationships. Measures of effect, sources of bias, estimation, and hypothesis testing in epidemiology are discussed, along with estimation of risk and odds. Prerequisite: Grade C or better in MAT 134 or 3 years of high school algebra with a grade of C or better.

4.00 Credits
The content of this course is designed to equip learners in identification of body fluids pertinent to forensics, including saliva, blood, and semen. DNA profiling of these fluids and other tissues of forensic interest is included. Key components of QC/QA are featured with reference to FDA, EPA, and ISO guidelines. Prerequisite: BIO 457.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides a comprehensive examination of the principles of heredity and variation, including Mendelian, molecular, and population genetics. Students explore topics such as gene mapping, DNA structure and replication, population genetics, and molecular change. Prerequisite: BIO 181.
-
4.00 Credits
The content of this course is designed to equip learners with general principles of toxicology, forensic toxicology, and drug metabolism. Topics include chemistry and biological activities, as well as types and effects of drugs of forensic interest in biological material. Key components of QC/QA are featured with reference to FBI, ASCLD, and ISO guidelines. Prerequisites: CHM 465 and CHM 465L.

4.00 Credits
This in-depth course covers the structure of the human body from an applied anatomical perspective. It prepares students for graduate-level gross cadaver anatomy coursework by applying critical thinking skills to anatomical studies and emphasizing proper cadaver dissection technique and respect and dignity for the human cadaver. Small groups work collaboratively to explore, locate, expose, identify, and demonstrate various muscles and associated osteologic landmarks, nerves, and blood vessels of the human body. Prerequisites: BIO 181 and BIO 181L.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed to bridge the gap between basic preclinical science courses and the clinical requirements of health care/life science professionals. Systematic studies focus on the etiology, pathogenesis, morphology, and clinical manifestations associated with various altered health states and diseases. Material is presented using clinically relevant terminology that increases accurate and effective communication through extensive vocabulary expansion. Upon completion of this course, students should be able to correctly discuss a variety of disease states with health care professionals and patients while addressing the following questions: What is actually happening at the physiological level that causes the signs and symptoms of a given condition or disease? How does a change in normal physiology cause the signs and symptoms of a given condition or disease? How do these physiological effects correlate to mechanisms of accurate diagnoses? Why is one treatment method chosen over another? How do different systems intricately interrelate to cause a clinical picture and complications? Prerequisites: BIO 201 and BIO 202 or BIO 360.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces advanced anatomy concepts and examines structures and functions of the human body. Upon successful completion of this course, students demonstrate knowledge and/or skill in six levels of structural organization of the human body and how they interact, metabolism, negative and positive feedback mechanisms and their effect on the body, and mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis. Prerequisite: BIO 181.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide students with knowledge and skills in application, evaluation, analysis, and interpretation of biostatistical data used to inform public health programs, policy, and practice. Students learn to complete statistical analysis using both qualitative and quantitative methodological approaches commonly used in public health practice.
-
4.00 Credits
This course applies epidemiological approaches to explore patterns of disease and injury in the human population. Emphasis is placed on health indicators, concepts, principles, and methods of chronic and infectious disease epidemiology. Students learn to conduct their own statistical analysis of basic epidemiological measures used for evidence-based decision making using data and reports.

4.00 Credits
This course is an overview of the business of sports, including career opportunities, as well as a study of the value of professional management to sports organizations.
