  • 4.00 Credits

    4 credits A study of the structure and function of the cell on cellular, subcellular and molecular levels. How energy and information flows within and between cells will be highlighted. Significant new discoveries in this field will also be discussed. The laboratory will provide the opportunity to put many of the learned cellular concepts into practice using techniques such as DNA and protein, gel electrophoresis, purification and cell transformations. Prerequisite: BIO 123 Introduction to Microbiology, Zoology, and Physiology. Offered as needed.
  • 1.00 Credits

    3 credits Off-campus supervised experience in: a) a selected area of laboratory or field biology; b) a hospital laboratory setting (medical technology); c) community and/or clinical pharmacy setting; or d) community and/or clinical physical therapy setting. Off-campus activities are coordinated by a designated off-campus supervisor in conjunction with an on-campus supervisor. Internship credit earned in a clinical setting may not be applied toward a biology major. Prerequisites: 16 hours of biology and permission of department chair.
  • 1.00 Credits

    4 credits An opportunity to develop skills and/or in-depth training in specialized areas. The student will plan and carry out the project under the direct supervision of a faculty member. This course may include but is not limited to: a) Advanced Human Anatomy; c) Electrophoresis and Chromatography; d) Photomicrography; e) Field Biology; g) Experimental Embryology. Prerequisites: 12 hours of biology and permission of department chair.
  • 1.00 Credits
