3.00 Credits
This course studies an emerging discipline that encompasses the study and conservation of the earth's biodiversity. Topics include population biology, ecology, and conservation of the diversity of species that cohabit the living world. It also examines how theories are used in habitat management practices. Current issues and case studies are used as examples. Pre-requisites: BL 101-102 and ES 301.
-
3.00 Credits
Application and integration of biochemical processes to the functioning of whole organisms. Toxicological emphasis will be related to medical and environmental concerns. Pre-requisites: ES 206, CH 201-202 and recommend CH 320-321 or permission of professor. (Offered on demand.)
-
3.00 Credits
Exploration of contemporary topics through applied research in Animal Physiology, Microbiology, Genetics, and Biochemistry culminating in a senior biology research project. Three hours and an occasional additional hour for senior project development. Prerequisites: A background in Cell Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, and some experience in biological research techniques and investigation, or permission of professor.
-
3.00 Credits
Students are responsible for a project/internship design and proposal. Employment is pursued through a student job search. This project is typically developed during the junior year, employment is during the summer, and the final project presented during the senior year. A research-based project may be considered for honors recognition. All proposals and evaluation of projects will be approved through the Environmental Studies Review Committee.
