-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
A general course designed for biology majors and those in pre-professional training. This course will acquaint students with the diversity, structures, and functions of microscopic organisms as related to their medical, immunological, and environmental significance, with special emphasis on bacteria. Safety procedures, culture techniques, and identification of microorganisms will be emphasized. There is one 3-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: one 2000-level biology laboratory course and CHM 1014, General Chemistry I.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
This is an introductory course exploring the interrelations of organisms and the environment. Species interactions, populations, communities, biomes, the physical environment, and ecosystems will be discussed. Ecological technologies, principles, and techniques will be applied in local field laboratories. There is one 3-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisite: BIO 2124, Botany.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
This is an upper-level course in physiology-the study of the mechanisms by which organisms function-for students preparing for careers in health or to continue their education in professional and graduate schools. Lectures and laboratories focus on the human body as a model for understanding general principles of physiology.. The main topics discussed are homeostasis, metabolism, thermoregulation, nerve and sensory physiology, hormonal controls, kidney and cardiovascular function. There is one 3-hour lab per week. Prerequisites: BIO 1324, Principles of Biology II and CHM 1014, General Chemistry I. Recommended: BIO 2014, Zoology.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to be the culmination of the course of study for B.S. Biology majors. Students in this course will experience intensive literature research, produce a professional report, and will present their findings to their peers. Prerequisites: at least two upper-level biology classes and senior classification, or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to be the culmination of the course of study for B.S. Biology majors. Students in this course will receive instruction in specific experimental techniques, design, data analysis, literature research and presentation methods. With the guidance of the professor, the students will design and conduct their own research projects and present a professional report of their findings to their peers. Prerequisites: at least two upper-level biology courses and Senior classification, or permission of the Instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to be the culmination of the course of study for Biology majors in the areas of Molecular and Cellular Biology. This course will include advanced topics in molecular and cellular biology including but not limited to: Molecular genetics, cell and molecular methods, cell organization and cell social contexts. Prerequisites: BIO 1324 Principles of Biology II, one 2000 level Biology laboratory course, CHM 3014, Organic Chemistry I, and Junior classification or permission of the Instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This is the study of animal development, including human, from gamete formation to hatching or birth of the new individual. Students study the theories and concepts as well as the anatomy and physiology involved in the ultimate expression of genetic information. Laboratory emphasizes microscope study of embryonic anatomy and histology, supplemented with films and experiments. Prerequisite: BIO 3024 Genetics.
-
3.00 Credits
This is an upper-level applied botany course that investigates the anatomy, physiology, and taxonomy of lichens. The course will also explore the relationship between the fungi and algae that form the lichen symbiosis. A survey of other cryptogamic organisms will also be presented. This course is application intensive and will include field trips and laboratory experiences. Prerequisites: BIO 2124, Botany and CHM 1024, General Chemistry II.
-
3.00 Credits
The content of this course is the same as PHE 2013, Anatomy, but with additional assignments and/or different exams.
-
5.00 - 6.00 Credits
In this course students will practice the art of dissection. They will learn anatomical terminology, find, identify and learn to recognize the structures and organs, and their anatomical and functional relationships in the vertebrate body. By comparing different individuals and species, students will gain an understanding of human anatomy, the variation among individuals and the similarities among different but related species. This laboratory requires approximately 5 to 6 hours each week. Prerequisites: Junior class rank and permission of the Instructor. PHE 2013, Anatomy or BIO 4333, Anatomy is highly recommended.
