(2 contact hours: .50 lecture, 1.5 lab)
-
0.00 - 1.00 Credits
This series of courses (BIOS 1901-1904) introduces students to the fundamental knowledge and techniques associated with the operation of a laboratory engaged in biotechnology. In this course, students will learn experimental techniques including reagent preparation, filtration, sterile technique, and cell culture. (2 contact hours: .50 lecture, 1.5 lab)
-
0.00 - 1.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the operation of basic instrumentation found in a laboratory engaged in biotechnology. The course includes the instruction in the proper use of centrifuges, spectrometers, and microscopes. Students must supply a scientific calculator. (2 contact hours: .50 lecture, 1.5 lab)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 2700, BIOS 1200; or permission of instructor This course advances the student's knowledge of microbial metabolism and genetics, with an emphasis on biotechnological applications. Students will manipulate cell growth conditions experimentally for native and genetically altered microbes. The course also covers the genetics of microbial viral pathogens (phage). Students will record experimental procedures, data, and interpretations. (5 contact hours: 2 lecture, 3 lab)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 2700, BIOS 1200; or permission of instructor This course introduces students to the establishment, maintenance, characterization, and storage of eukaryotic cell cultures. In the laboratory, students will prepare media, manipulate cells using aseptic technique, characterize ectopically expressed gene products, and catalog cell cultures. The course also addresses monoclonal antibody production. Students will record experimental procedures, data, and interpretations. (5 contact hours: 2 lecture, 3 lab)
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOS 1200, BIOS 1500; or permission of instructor This specialized course includes the basic genetics and technical aspects of introducing foreign and native genes into organisms. The course also addresses molecular diagnostics for healthcare, forensic science, and research purposes. In the laboratory, the students will isolate, characterize, manipulate, and clone nucleic acids. The course emphasizes record-keeping and good laboratory practice.(8 contact hours: 2 lecture, 6 lab)
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOS 2500 or permission of instructor This course introduces students to the use of computers in the biotechnology laboratory. The course provides basic instruction related to the terminology and use of computers in communicating in the biotechnology industry. The course also provides introductory instruction in the use of applied software packages including: DNA/protein sequence analysis; scientific literature and molecular sequence database manipulation; multiple sequence alignment software; and utility software such as statistical packages and documentation programs. (2 contact hours: 0.5 lecture, 1.5 lab)
-
5.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOS 2100 or permission of instructor This course introduces students to the principles and techniques of fermentation and bioprocessing. Laboratory experiments will include food and beverage fermentations; microbial fermentations yielding specific products such as antibiotics or amino acids; and product formation using isolated enzymes. This course also examines the economics and operational factors encountered when producing microbial by-products on an industrial scale. Students will record experimental procedures, data, and interpretations. (9 contact hours: 3 lecture, 6 lab)
-
5.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOS 2400 (can be taken concurrently); BIOS 2500, BIOS 2600, BIOS 2800 (must be taken concurrently); or permission of instructor This specialized course provides students with supervised practical experience in an academic or industrial laboratory engaged in biotechnology. The internship integrates the student's bioscience knowledge and laboratory skills, acquired within the core coursework of the Bioscience Technology program, with job experience representative of an entry-level Bioscience laboratory technician position. (25 contact hours: 25 lab)
