Four lectures per week. Prerequisites: BIO-1110 Introduction to Biology; CHEM- 3510 Organic Chemistry I.
  • 2.00 Credits

    -Fa, Sp (2 hours) Student will undertake an original research project under the direction of a departmental faculty mentor or approved mentor within a summer research program or within an approved academic internship experience geared toward completion of the capstone experience. Prerequisites: junior status; permission of instructor. ( Fee: $150)
  • 1.00 - 2.00 Credits

    -Fa (1-2 hours) Student will participate in an 8-10 week summer undergraduate research program of his or her choosing at an accredited university or medical facility. Prior to participation in the research program, the student must have the program approved by the biology faculty member in charge of the course. In addition, the student will receive a progress report form which will be filled out by the student and signed by the student's research advisor. To receive credit for the course, the student must turn in the progress report along with a copy of his or her laboratory notebook or research log, submit a 5-10 page research summary, and meet with the faculty member in charge of the course. Prerequisite: completion of the first two years of the biology core.
  • 4.00 Credits

    -Fa (4 hours) In-depth study of the cell includes the following topics: normal cell physiology and division, differentiation, basic signaling pathways and programmed cell death.
