This is a one semester course that serves as an introduction to the biological bases of behavior. It includes ethology and comparative behavior, psychobiological development, physiological and sensory mechanisms of behavior, and evolution and behavioral genetics. It presents basic structural and functional properties of the nervous system.

4.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of Introduction to Science Research I. It allows motivated students to continue to perform scientific research, at a higher level then Science Research I. Students in Science Research II will be in class with Science Research I students, but will be expected to be more self-sufficient in all aspects of research (for example, designing experiments, collecting data, analyzing results, and writing scientific literature). Students are also expected to provide leadership for a small group of Science Research I students, being a "project leader" for an experiment.
