This course covers the endocrine, digestive, respiratory, circulatory, immune, excretory, and reproductive systems of the human body. Laboratory exercises include anatomical dissection. Three lectures and a two-hour laboratory per week. Must be concurrently enrolled in lab. Lab Fee: $75. Prerequisite: C- or better in BIO 171 or permission of the Department Chair. Offered every spring semester. Fulfills general education lab science elective requirement.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the structure and function of the human body with emphasis on the musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive systems. Discussions will emphasize the correlations between the optimal functioning of these systems and dance performance. This course is recommended for Dance majors only and does not satisfy the anatomy requirement for Sport/Fitness or Health Sciences majors. Laboratory exercises include some anatomical dissection. Lab Fee: $75. Offered every fall semester. Fulfills general education lab science elective requirement.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces basic ecological principles, including the interrelationships of living organisms with their living and nonliving environment. Ecological issues in the areas of human population, human health, and maintenance of global diversity are examined. Three lectures and a two-hour laboratory per week. Must be concurrently enrolled in lab. Lab Fee: $75. Offered in the spring semester in odd-numbered years. Fulfills general education lab science elective requirement.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces the principles of general bacteriology, morphology, physiology and bacterial relationships in nature. Students gain experience in laboratory methods for the cultivation of bacteria and their destruction as well as for general laboratory procedures. Three lectures and a two-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: BIO 171 or BIO 151. Lab Fee: $75. Offered every fall semester. Fulfills general education lab science elective requirement.
-
1.00 Credits
This capstone project is designed to offer second-year students in the Math/Science major a guided research experience. Students will work closely with a faculty mentor in selecting an appropriate topic and will then attend a series of scheduled workshop presentations by faculty members. These workshops will address topics pertinent to scientific and quantitative research, as well as general areas of documentation and data interpretation. First-year students in the Math/Science major are welcome to attend all workshops and are also encouraged to attend the final projects presentations. Prerequisites: BIO 151, BIO 152, MTH 152 or permission of Department Chair. Offered every fall semester.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is the continuation of BIO 291. It is designed to allow completion of the research project that was begun in the first semester. Upon completion, students will be expected to present their research to the Math/Science faculty in their fourth semester. First-year students in the Math/Science major are welcome to attend all workshops and will also be encouraged to attend these final projects presented by the graduating students. Prerequisites: BIO 291, MTH 241, CHM 152 or permission of Department Chair. Offered every spring semester.
-
3.00 Credits
This course addresses a special topic in biology, using current science theories to analyze that topic. Through comprehensive readings, students' ability to think critically about the topic and the discipline will be developed. A research paper or project will be required. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing and completion of an introductory course in the discipline, or permission of the Department Chair. Offered on an as-needed basis.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will introduce the principles underlying the theory that revolutionized biology - Darwin's principle of natural selection and the process of evolution. The genetic basis of diversity will be examined in relationship to how the natural environment selects the survivors in any population. How new species evolve, how species go extinct and mass extinctions, evolution of societies and behavior will be discussed. For selected topics in this course, students will read supplemental text material and engage in research. Prerequisites: Junior or senior standing and BIO 151, 152 or 171, or permission of Department Chair. Offered in the spring semester in even-numbered years.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will analyze human movements. In looking at the relationship between anatomical structure and function, the course explores the human body and how it performs by studying anatomy, body mechanics and physiology. Discussion will include common injuries associated with human movement, prevention of injuries, conditioning, movement behaviors, somatics, and efficiency of motion. Prerequisite: BIO 171 or BIO 175 with a minimum grade of B-; junior standing or permission of instructor. This course is also cross-listed as DAN 387. Offered every spring semester.
-
3.00 Credits
Analyzes the environment and management of the firm, including management philosophy and functions, roads to business ownership, legal considerations in starting a business, locating a business, provision of physical facilities, the danger of small business failure, and the entrepreneur and his/her qualifications.
