3.00 Credits
A basic statistic course with an emphasis on the use of statistics in the life sciences. The course covers descriptive statistics, probability and hypothesis testing using both parametric and nonparametric statistics testing. A semester project is required. Prerequisite: MATH1200. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Science program.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the order of primates and describes its general characteristics and distribution, reviews the fossil record on primate origins and describes anatomical details and social behaviors. Students will better understand the natural history of primates and thus incorporate the knowledge into the primate's role in a research facility. Prerequisite: Open to junior Veterinary Science students or by permission of the instructor. A grade of C or better is required for graduation from the Veterinary Science program.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces normal comparative microscopic anatomy. Tissue identification at the microscopic level is emphasized. Tissue preparation, cutting and staining techniques are covered in the laboratory. Prerequisites: One year of anatomy and physiology, or one year of biology, or by permission of the instructor. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Science program.
-
3.00 Credits
A survey course in genetics with an emphasis on vertebrates. The course reinforces past learning of cell division and the structure of chromosomes. Mendelian genetics and modifications to it, molecular basis of heredity, gene expression, heritability and population genetics will also be included. Prerequisites: One year of college biology or anatomy and physiology of domestic animals and CHEM1001/1002. This course assumes a prior knowledge of cell structure, cell division and a fundamental knowledge of DNA structure and function. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Science.
-
4.00 Credits
An introductory course with laboratory for students in the health professions or life sciences. Inorganic chemistry and an introduction to organic chemistry are covered. Topics include measurement, the nature of atoms, bonding, calculations and chemical equations, reactions and solutions, the states of matter, thermodynamics, kinetics, acids, bases, buffers and the hydrocarbons. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Technology program.
-
4.00 Credits
A continuation of CHEM1001. The basics of organic chemistry are continued. The fundamentals of biochemistry are covered and its application to the health sciences is emphasized. Some topics include functional groups, nomenclature and reactions of organic compounds, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and basic metabolism. Prerequisite: A grade of D or better in CHEM1001. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Technology program.
-
4.00 Credits
A survey course that introduces the basic principles of inorganic, organic, and biological chemistry while emphasizing material unique to health-related studies. Topics include math for chemistry, energy, atoms, bonding, equations, gases, solutions, acids and bases, hydrocarbon structure and chemistry, and important functional groups. The important biological molecules, carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins are investigated. The laboratory will complement and expand on lecture topics. Laboratory safety will be emphasized.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces Organic Chemistry, with emphasis on the principles of broad classes of reactions. Topics will include bonding, physical properties, stereochemistry of alkanes, alkenes. alkynes, alkyl halides, alcohols and ethers, with an introduction to infrared and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The laboratory will complement and expand on lecture topics. Laboratory safety will be emphasized. The organic reactions performed will be done in a microscale. Prerequisites CHEM1001 and CHEM1002. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Sciences Programs.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of CHEM2100 and involves the chemistry of carboryl groups and aromatic compounds. Emphasis will be placed more heavily on analysis and synthesis, as well as the relevancy to medicine, the environment, biology and society in general. The laboratory will again enhance and expand the lecture topics. Prerequisites: CHEM2100. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Science Programs.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed as a general survey class in Biochemistry. The structures, functions, anabolic and catabolic pathways of nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids will be discussed. Enzymatic regulation, nervous and endocrine control, and pathway integration will be evaluated in the context of homeostasis at the cellular through organismal level. Prerequisites: Biology I & II or Anatomy and Physiology I & II and Chemistry I & II. Usually offered in Fall. A grade of C or better is required for graduation in the Veterinary Sciences program.
