  • 3.00 Credits

    An introduction to the content, methods, and philosophy of science with an emphasis on the principles of biology and their application to topics in research and current issues in science. Each instructor will focus on a specific area of biology to allow more in-depth study of a particular sub-discipline or interdisciplinary topic. Topics of focus may include such areas as Aquatic Biology, Human Biology, Microbiology, Animal Behavior, Marine Biology, or Ecology (students should check course listings for current offerings). Cannot be used as elective credit toward the biology major. This course may be repeated for General Elective credit when the topic differs. Every semester. Credit: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    General principles of animal life, emphasizing the structure and function of the human body. Every semester. Credit: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    Introduction to biology through the study of plants. The course emphasizes the diversity and functioning of plants, general principles in biology, application of those principles to environmental problems, the process of science, and science skills. Labs include field investigations, lab experiments, examinations of plants, and skills workshops. Prerequisite(s): science majors, science education majors, or permission of instructor. Fall semester. Credit: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    A field-oriented course that presents an introduction to the natural history of Maine flowering plants, along with a survey of the lower vascular plants. The course is designed to use Maine habitats and native plants for the purposes of identifying specific plants, recognizing plant communities and studying reproductive biology and evolution of the vascular plants. Prerequisite(s): Science major, Science Education major, or Science Concentration; OR approval by the Instructor and the Division Chairperson. Every year. Credit: 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    Introduction to biology and science as process through the study of animals. General Zoology surveys comparative physiology, anatomy, morphology, behavior, and ecology of animal taxa to provide an introduction to the principles, skills, and applications of biology to majors in biology, environmental science, and science education. The course emphasizes the diversity and evolutionary adaptations of animal groups, general principles in biology, application of biological principles to environmental problems, the process of science, and science skills. Labs include actual research projects (including data analysis and report writing), lab experiments, examinations of animal anatomy, morphology, and behavior, and skills workshops. Prerequisite(s): Science majors, Science Education majors, or permission of instructor. Every year. Credit: 4
