3.00 Credits
This is a course in marine biology designed for the non-science major. Students will be introduced to the major groups of marine organisms, diverse coastal habitats, adaptations and distribution of organisms within marine habitats, and the potential for human impact on marine organisms and the environment. Current discoveries and "hot topics" within the field of marine biology will also be discussed. Laboratory work will include hands-on experience with sampling methods and equipment from both shore-based and boat-based platforms, general identification of marine plants and animals, and first-hand observation of different coastal habitats, their residents and unique adaptations. This course will be taught at the Marine Science Consortium in Wallops Island, VA. (3 s.h., 4 c.h.; this course is also offered with the MAR prefix.)

This general Education course is an introduction to discrete mathematics, a branch of mathematics that solves problems such as finding the probability of being dealt a straight flush in 5-card poker, protecting financial information from hackers, and enabling error-free communication with astronauts in space. Course material is drawn from areas of mathematics such as number theory, combinatorics, probability, and abstract algebra. This course serves students who are interested in introductory mathematics that is not in the same vein as precalculus and calculus.
