-
3.00 Credits
A study of current environmental conditions, issues, and problems. Students will study the different types of ecosystems, the use and availability of natural resources, population dynamics, and environmental risks. Students will also explore possible solutions to such environmental issues such as global warming, acid rain, extinction of species, and energy waste by examining current specific and political thought. Fulfills: Natural Science Requirement
-
2.00 Credits
This course covers lab procedures that are commonly used to determine the quality of our environment. Students will perform quantitative and qualitative experiments on air, water, food, and soil to determine environmental quality. Fulfills: Lab Science Requirement Prerequisite: LIFE 1413 Environmental Science or concurrent enrollment in LIFE 1413 Environmental Science
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the phylogeny, taxonomy, morphology, development and ecology of insects. Emphasis is placed upon identification of local species as well as collection and preservation techniques. For a fifteen- week semester, it involves two hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory per week. This course is designed as an elective for students interested in biology, elementary or secondary education, and other related fields. Prerequisite: LIFE 1402 Principles of Biology
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
A subject of biological science, selected by the student in conjunction with the instructor, will be researched extensively by experimentation and/or reading. Fulfills: Natural Science Requirement Prerequisite: LIFE 1402 Principles of Biology
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
The course is designed to provide students with experience in a life science work environment. A minimum of 45 clock hours is required for each hour of credit received. The experience must be in an approved internship site and the experience must provide exposure to the life science field. The student and faculty advisor will establish specific competencies for the course. The student will report to an on-site coordinator and a faculty advisor on a regular basis throughout the internship. The student will record hours worked and duties performed in a daily journal. The student will complete a written report of his/her experience due upon completion of the internship.
-
1.00 - 5.00 Credits
This course deals with the investigation of selected areas of study within the division of mathematics and science. The student's inquiry is supervised and guided by the instructor. Students are required to investigate/explore certain areas of study that interest them within a particular field or discipline. Fulfills: Natural Science Requirement
-
3.00 Credits
Students in this course will participate in panel presentations, discussions, surveys, and write an "informed opinion" paper on issues including: moderngenetics practices, new reproductive technologies, human experimentations, controlling human behavior, recent technologies and health care concepts, and human population control. Fulfills: Natural Science Requirement
-
5.00 Credits
This course is designed to introduce the student to the fundamental concepts and principles of animal biology and to be aware of the relationship of these principles to man. Laboratory study of animals, representing the gross and microscopic anatomy, physiology, classification, and ecology will be included. The approach will be from the single cell to the complex organism.
