3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ANTH, PSY or SOC 150. Introductory overview of human sexual function and sexual behavior. Emphasis on the historical and religious background of the prevailing attitudes toward sex in our culture as well as to current sexual practices from the perspective of contemporary social science. Additional topics include sexual values and ethics, love, legal aspects of sexual behavior, and eroticism in American culture. (Cross listed with ANTH 230 and SOC 230)
-

Inquiry into the psychological aspects of contemporary social problems. Analysis of psychosocial variables influencing people and a consideration of the conscious and unconscious aspects of motive states underlying current social conflicts. Individually assigned readings, small group discussions, and classroom participation required. (Available for General Education, Social Sciences)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PSY 150; passing grade in AAS, CHS, PAS, or ENGL 098 or eligibility for the lower division writing requirement. Designed for students majoring in psychology. Development of a greater understanding of the relationship between human behavior and human physiology. Includes basic information about the anatomy and function of the nervous system and the endocrine system. Students are required to spend approximately 1.25 hours during the term in research-related activities.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PSY 150. Consideration of psychologically relevant research and theory relating to prejudice and discrimination. Special emphasis given to African American, Asian, Jewish, Latino, and Native American cultures. Topics include institutional racism and discrimination, issues of “reverse discrimination,” culture, ethnicity and language, and historical victims of prejudice and discrimination.

-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Acceptance into MPT program.Investigation and critique of the development and role of physical therapy in health care management. Includes ethics, medical terminology, and basic principles of clinical research.
-
2.00 - 4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Acceptance into MPT program. Recommended Corequisite: PT 301L.This course promotes an understanding of the structural and functional organization of the human body, with an emphasis on the neuromusculoskeletal system. Dissected and prosected cadavers, models and audiovisual materials are used to identify and study 3-dimensional relationships and their application to the principles of human movement. Although gross anatomy is the primary emphasis, histology, arthrology and myology are integrated with structure and function. two hours lecture, six hours lab per week.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Acceptance into MPT program. Recommended Corequisite: PT 302L.Principles of circulatory, respiratory, neuromuscular, integumentary and metabolic physiology as applied to physical therapy procedures and therapeutic exercise.

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Acceptance into MPT program. Study of abnormal functioning of neuromusculoskeletal, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, integumentary, metabolic and endocrine systems. Includes causes of disease, inflammatory response, and immune system.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Acceptance into MPT program. Recommended Corequisite: PT 400L. Covers the biomechanical and kinesiological principles underlying the assessment of normal and pathological movement and function. Integration of knowledge from anatomy, biology and physics with current concepts in biomechanics as applied to the assessment of patients/clients is required. Lectures will focus on the biomechanical processes underlying human movement in health and disease including muscle and tissue mechanics, leverage, internal and external torque production, kinematics and kinetics. Labs will focus on the application of these principles to client/patient evaluation, including analysis of normal and pathological gait. Three hours lecture, three hours lab per week.
