-
3.00 Credits
This course is a one semester course in the fundamental laboratory approaches for biochemistry and biotechnology. While largely a hands-on course, laboratory experiments will be supplemented with lectures that integrate the theoretical and practical principals covered in the exercises. Topics include protein purification, characterization and analysis, enzyme kinetics and molecular modeling. Prerequisites: BY312 or CY450 or CM460 or consent of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will provide students with detailed information on the structure, packages, and expression of genes within the genome of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Topics will include chromatin packaging and structure; DNA replication mutation and repair; transcription; RNA splicing; translation; and control of gene expression. Included with each of these topics will be primary research papers, which will discussed during class. During discussions, experiments in the papers will be analyzed as to how they work (focusing on current biotechnology) and critical analysis of the conclusions. Evaluation will involve exams based on material presented during the course as well as participation in discussions and written analysis of presented research papers. This course contains advanced topics and is designed primarily for graduate or advanced undergraduate students. Graduate students will do additional course work.
-
1.00 - 10.00 Credits
Student performs independent research toward a masters or doctorate degree under the guidance of a faculty thesis advisor. A graduate thesis committee monitors student progress and provides guidance toward completion of the project. Work done in satisfaction of the requirements for a degree will be assigned a grade when the thesis is submitted and approved. Prerequisites: Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
Analysis of GIS based local and global geographic datasets that are of importance in civil and environmental engineering practice. Both vector-based and raster based GIS will be used. Applications include: identifying regions of two or more overlapping or intersecting maps or map layers, and creating numeric data bases using geospatial data.
-
3.00 Credits

Topics include stress-strain and strength relationships, consolidation, permeability and compaction of soils. Related geotechnical design problems included. Laboratory experience included. (1 credit of design)
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the fundamentals of environmental engineering and science. Discussion of the role of engineering in current and emerging environmental issues.
