4.00 Credits
General Microbiology covers bacteria, fungi, protozoa, algae, and viruses. Structure, metabolism, growth requirements, genetics, and replication of these microbes will be compared. Emphasis will be placed on the role of microbes in human disease and the function of the immune system in microbial control and balance. Environment and industrial microbiology will also be discussed. Three hours of lab per week are required and sessions will be structured to provide a hands-on introduction to common laboratory techniques related to topics covered in lecture. Safety and infection control will also be stressed. (Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1740 General Biology 1: The Living Cell with a grade of "C" or better) Traditional and hybrid sections are available. (MnTC: Goal 3) 4C/3/1/0
