  • BIO 260: Ecology

    3.00 Credits
    Post University

    Ecology is the study of how living creatures interact with the living and non-living components of their environment. Topics in this course include population dynamics, energy flow, biological and geochemical cycles, decomposition, community structure and composition, plant and animal defenses, pest management, and environmental factors that may disrupt the global or local community. Prerequisite: BIO134.

  • BIO 280: Forensic Science II

    3.00 Credits
    Post University

    This course is designed to provide students with a deeper understanding of several aspects of forensic science including crime scene processing, evidence collection, chain of evidence (with associated paperwork), motor vehicle accidents, blood spatter, and ballistics. Students will be asked to analyze evidence, participate in case 144 studies, and utilize databases for both ballistics and blood spatter. Cross listed with ENV280. Prerequisites: BIO180, BIO181 or Permission of instructor.

  • BIO 290: Chemistry and Physics in Forensics

    3.00 Credits
    Post University

    To analyze many crimes, one needs to have a good understanding of both chemistry and physics. Students will learn about the fundamentals of organic and inorganic chemistry (titration, precipitation, color metric tests) and apply them to forensic uses. Students will also apply the basic physical principles (one dimensional and two dimensional analysis, kinematics, motion and gravitation, work and energy, momentum, rotational motion, solids and fluids, and heat and thermodynamics). Cross listed with ENV290. Prerequisites: MAT130, BIO180, or PHY110 and CHM105, or Permission of instructor.

  • BIO 299: Introduction to Cancer Biology

    3.00 Credits
    Post University

    Cancer is a term that causes concern or fear in most individuals. It is a disease that many people worry about getting, and is regularly mentioned in the popular press and media. At the same time, it is a significantly misunderstood biological event. This course is designed to supply students with a basic understanding of the human body (parts and functions) and a general understanding of events leading to cancer, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Once this general foundation is supplied (3-4 weeks), students then proceed system by system to learn about the causes, changes, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis for the following types of cancer: skin, lung, liver, colorectal, ovarian, breast, prostate, testicular, central nervous system, and blood cancers.

  • BIO 301: Cell Biology

    4.00 Credits
    Post University

    This is a study of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell anatomy and physiology. Topics include cell communication, responses to environmental change, metabolic processes, and cell culture systems. Laboratory activities will promote the development of culture technique and hands-on learning to support the principles discussed in lecture. Laboratory fee required. Prerequisite: BIO134, CHM105, CHM106 or permission of the instructor.

  • BIO 305: Endocrinology

    3.00 Credits
    Post University

    Chemical messengers participate in communication, regulation, and development of living organisms. A general survey of these messengers, their sites of production, and mechanisms of action will be discussed. While the major emphasis of this course will be on animal systems and their physiological responses, hormones and biochemical communication in plants will also be discussed. Prerequisite: BIO134, CHM105.

  • BIO 306: Genetics

    3.00 Credits
    Post University

    Genetics is not only the study of inheritance patterns, but also the study of chromosomal structure, mutational events, population genetics, and molecular genetics. During the course of the semester, students will have the opportunity to learn-in correct historical time line-about the development of this discipline and the basic principles that are used in many other areas of biology. Prerequisite: BIO134, CHM105, or permission of the instructor.
