  • BIO 106: General Zoology

    4.00 Credits
    Midland University

    4 credit hours This scientific literacy course uses the study of animals to emphasize the interrelationship of all life forms and discusses the basic natural and physical laws which govern all life, genetic and developmental processes and evolutionary diversity, interactions of animals with one another and with the environment, and animal classification. Students learn that all living organisms are partners in the sharing of the resources of this planet and that they have special responsibilities toward their environment. The laboratory component uses the scientific method whereby the students make observations, formulate hypotheses and perform tests/experiments. Laboratory included.

  • BIO 110: Bioethics

    3.00 Credits
    Midland University

    3 credit hours This course in moral responsibility examines the relationship between our biological nature and realistic knowledge of the biological world and the formulation of policies designed to promote the social good. The course introduces the philosophical, moral and ethical foundations for making value judgments, emphasizing the Christian perspective. Some of the major social problems in this and the next century will have significant biological components associated with them. Possible topics include the potential uses and misuses of biotechnology, the appropriate use of natural resources and the role of the public in deciding scientific policy. Students study responses of communities, institutions and governments to these problems and formulate a personal ethic reflecting the concepts presented.
